taking I-90 to I-94 (Spokane to Billings to Bismark to MN) if you live on the route and see us passing thru, give a honk and a thumbs up so I know it's someone on the forum.

It's all down hill from there. (relatively speaking ?)

 

Enjoy the scenery in MT. Won't be much to see once you get into the Dakota's

 

look for THE NoDak state tree....I think it's the only one in the state.

The B4 started up this morning! (I was a little worried the bouncing through Montana, might have put my oil bath down the carb)

 

And here is a shot for 48dodger....

Maybe you also keep the eyes open for a black 1939 Plymouth truck .. it belongs to a Forum member, who did a really nice restoration work last year within a few month ! Most likely he will be there.

Forgive me Jeff that I publish your PT pictures here,  you did a too good job not to show it to the guys here !!!

Me and the family made it.  I didn't drive the Meadowbrook or the B-1-D though.  We sure had fun anyway!  Best part was meeting ggdad1951, Merle, and youngEd.  I got to take a close up look at their trucks and ask a lot of questions. so that really helped a lot in a few things that I need to fix on my truck. It was also nice to put faces to names.

Their trucks are spectacular to say the least. Mine will never be that nice, but that's okay as long as it's mechanically sound. Wish I could have stayed longer but I found the guys toward the end of our run and the family was getting pretty tired towards the end.
