Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Today was a pretty nice day, so I loaded up the wife and Molly Dawg, then drove out to the daughter and son n laws place. It rained pretty good overnight and the ground was so saturated water was running like a spring out of the ground and the pond was full.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
For sure. Sounds like a good place to be. I think you know, if you remember, my sister and old friend/brother-in-law live in Sebago.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
The life of my '95 Chevy in three pictures
How I bought it off a used car lot. Emerald Green/Grey interior 6.5TD/5spd Cheyenne former masonry contractor truck in '98 How it ended up, minus the ladder rack and custom tonneau cover. GM color Fairway Green with upgraded GM cloth seat re-cover and a host of mods It's sad ending. An accident had literally just been cleared from a sharp curve descending into the river valley/county line. I hit antifreeze and it was slick as ice. Only doing 40 in 4th gear but the tail end slide out, I steered into it as usual, and it whipped back to slide out the other way, putting me sliding sideways across the lanes. I did a reverse t-bone into a Taurus which flipped me up clear over the car landing on it's lid against the bank on the opposite side of the road. No sooner had I shut it down and undid my seat belt and I heard someone say "Watch your eyes", before breaking my window out. It was the county sheriff who had just turned around at the river coming back up after he left the prior accident. EMT Suburban was behind him. Just plain bad luck. The officer asked if I was ok as I crawled out and I said, "I'm pretty bummed out". This was Oct '04, about a month before I joined here

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Thanks. I built it to be the ultimate work truck. I had the local race chassis builder build me a heavy duty 4-ling air bag rear suspension, so I could drop the tail end down for unloading the racks. The racks were two-stage powder coat in gun metal grey, then had Line-X mask them off to coat from about 1/4" over the top on the outer side all the way across to the other side, in dark grey. I had my upholstery guy make a tonneau cover out of grey truck tarp material. L.E.D.s with strobes, the list went on.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Holy begosh! Can't top those great pictures. Quite a first post entry to the site. Welcome from Maryland
No expense spared. It was a 9 year old truck to the insurance co. I showed all my receipts and got a good bit more, but a drop in the bucket still. The paint (cab forward) was a trade work deal, so no receipt there. II also didn't let them have it, and salvaged what I could. Unbelievably, that fiberglass hood had no damage what so ever

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Awesome pics. And welcome to the forums.
I'm no flier but I do love looking at WW2 era planes. We toured a flight museum in Pensacola last summer and one at Mobile a few years ago.

My uncle was a Tail Gunner on a B-24 Liberator Bomber. He had some interesting stories.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
I bet he still has that same smile on his face. Could be permanent
That's easy to guess. At least 4x anything close to reasonable or sane. That owner put a lot of effort into not making it as nice as it deserves to be

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Cooktop is up an running . But the center burner has a crack in it so we capped off the gas to it and removed the knob so it can’t be used . Warranty guy is coming Friday . A lot of people have commented on how bad Samsung service is . But so far it’s been very good .

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
My buddy and I talked about taking my C10 to BJ after it's finished and joked about how we could get way more than it's worth. Maybe not so funny after all.
