Yeah, I couldn't edit from my phone. I don't have a good editer at home either. I tried a little. I don't want to bother the PS guys anymore.

Thanks Bill!!. I didn't get anything done today either. I took one my girls pretty much all day. We ended up at the local airport. She even got her wings. She had a great time, especially when the helicopter taxied in for fuel. He was taxing people to the Atlanta NASCAR race. He charged $700 round trip for 3 people from Jasper to Hampton. That would be cool.

Thanks David!! No we didn't fly on anything. The helo might be an option for future races.

Nothing else done lately. Hadn't had much time the past couple of days. Had a barn raising at the pastors house yesterday and the wifes B-day today. Trying to get brave enough to weld the panel inside the bed for fuel tube.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10

I took a couple weeks off from the truck and any thing else. I just came home from work and did nothing. Getting back to it now. Ronnie traded me some new bed wood and SS strips for what he owed me on his truck. I haven't got the wood yet, but should have it this week. Still working on the right bedside.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10

I second that!!
Also I am really interested in how that latch system is I wish MAR-K would make a retrofit kit for our tail gates rather than the whole tailgate and latch parts.

By chance any part numbers or mfg information on the latches? I have been looking for something that matches the pictures on the MAR-K website but I have not come up with anything.

Mar-k is stamped on the side locks and Eberhard is on the latch

No strings attached. Guy Flowers.........now that's funny.

Ordered the rest of my bed pieces and Shannon had to go to Conyers and pick up some truck parts and went by Ronnie's shop to pick up the wood for my bed, it was only 15 miles away.

No progress this week. No time trying to get my truck and camper ready for delivery. It only took 2 years to sell it. They drove it 4 hours and called to tell me they loved it and the truck got 15 mpg average. I never pulled it far, just stayed close to home. They are very happy. That's a big weight off my shoulders. The Ford is gone. I've got my eye on a 1995 GMC Sierra 4X4. A man has to have a truck that runs and drives. We are looking for a class C camper that has already lost all of it's value. That way it won't loose value sitting in the yard.

Here is my old rig.

The class C will get worse mileage, won't it? Nice 5th Wheel.

Thanks. I'm sure it will, but we don't go camping much. It will be cheaper to maintain a DD gas truck rather than that big diesel.

Speaking of a gas truck I traded my 1995 4Runner today for this 1995 GMC Sierra K1500.



I also got some parts delivered today.





With the new trunnions I was able to get the new TG on. What a PITA by yourself. Tonight I hope to start fitting the hardware for it.

You got one heck of a trade Alan. The bed is looking really good. Getting close.

Besides the bed what else is left to do?
