Geeze Vince...How am I supposed to come eat donuts with you if you wait until the day before to say anything about it? Remember that bumper I told you I would give you? Do you still want it? Dano was at my house today lookin' it over but I told him I promised it to you (he wasn't really lookin' it over but I did show it to him). Free doesn't stay around too long.

Hey Randy, Thanx again!
My 4x4 buddies took two of the rims for their pre-runner project the moment I got home. They grabbed them out of the back of my truck. I checked the gear ratio on the rear axle and it is a 3:08. I can't wait to clean up and paint that bad boy, hopefully I will be able to get my truck up to 55 mph or even 60 mph. .

BTW Vince! That bumper is cherry!

Hey Randy, yes I still want that bumper, yet im still dealing with that frontend issue. My last resort is a new tire this week. Maybe I can drive down this weekend. Sorry about the short notice, I just found out Friday from friend of mine. But this meet is every 3rd Sunday so it will be back.

RE : front end troubles ;

A while ago my old '68 1 Ton Panel Truck had front end weirdness so I rebuilt it , new LT radial Tires , ball joints and so on but even after alignment it still wasn't right ~ it turns out one of the Bridgstone tires was 1/4" smaller diameter than the other four......

No more Bridgstones for me ! .

I have a 250/6 and 3 on the tree i want to sell or trade for a 350 engine...can supply steering column too my 250 runs and drives...

Re: SoCal checkin' in
 
How much for the 250 ? pix please , both sides .

I'm still in /rural Maine in the cold & snow , so far I've managed to find one '69 Fleetside and a '67 ~ '72 Panel that was being used to advertise some body shop....

Mostly '73 ~ '87 Square Bodies are the oldest rigs here , largely rusted out plow rigs , a very few shortie steppers .

Someone just needs to coordinate it, here on the forum and with Rob, with enough notice most folks can work it in.

I may be interested in a THM350 (to get rebuilt and put on stand by) if someone does not want the whole package.

agreed Lee you do it lol able to meet when ever expect this Sunday

VDOG 02-20-2013 08:52 PM

Re: SoCal checkin' in
 
That meet was actually supposed to take place this Saturday, that was the tenative date that I threw out. A few of you responded. I myself hope to have my front end issue fixed this weekend. Dano said he cant do the organizing of the meets for a while. If need be I can do it again. Or someone near where were going to meet can handle it from their city.

Let me know.
Can we get a count on who could make it for sure if we had it this Saturday?
Im only asking because Rob might say come on down anyway.
