moparmonkey Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Can't wait to see the pictures! Didn't get to make it out this year, I was called in to work at the last minute. I guess I'll have to try again next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

48Dodger Posted April 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Yeah...come on Tim and Bob. They're lapping us. I didnt take a single picture!!! So many trucks!! It was truly the year of the "in progress project". lol. I was cooking all day and when I wasn't trying to keep "Red" off of Don's burger, I was directing traffic. Sunday I was beat, but still needed to return the trucks I towed. I'm just now headin out with the "Spring Special"....taking it back to the mechanics shop so it can get running under its own power. I did get Bob to download a few pictures to my computer.....so here's a few I can share of his. 48D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buds truck Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 WOW, I can't wait for next year. I will be there come hell or high water..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Truck Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Thanks for posting pictures. Next year hopefully I'll make it. Really disappointed not being able to make it this year. I coach HS baseball, and we ended up having to play a makeup game on Saturday due to all the rain outs we've had this year.

John-T-53 Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Dang, I missed out on seeing that Spring Special, and all the other trucks. Hopefully it's there next year in the same original condition (and running)! I gotta remember not to start any more major truck projects the month before next year's get together.

Boss Hog Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Tim, Thank you for the great BBQ and all your hard work towing our B4B Spring Special. It took me as a Rookie..a little while to catch on to the phrase..Holly and I had a great time and look forward to continued friendship with all. Radiator Shop said my sending unit for the gas tank was not working. I ordered one from back east before I read the posts about it. Hope it will be ok? Also, any ideas on battery box replacemet? Tnx Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young Ed Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Whats the story behind the grey/rust colored one with 1/2 a spare truck in the bed? Someone get a good deal or worried about finding parts that fall off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob_Koch Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Whats the story behind the grey/rust colored one with 1/2 a spare truck in the bed? Someone get a good deal or worried about finding parts that fall off? A great story on that. Those are "rescue" parts. A guy was going to throw them away and one of our members rescued them. Brought them to the BBQ for who ever needed them. Just asked for a donation to the club in return. There was some nice sheet metal in there.

Someone get a good deal or worried about finding parts that fall off? That's Jim's truck. He drove it from San Jose (2 plus hours away) in 2008 but broke down going home. He skipped bringing it the last two years, but this year had a trailer and towed it here. He and I rode in it together from the trailer to the party....lol...maybe 300 feet? Had me a blast, it runs smooooth. 48D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know the history of this truck? That is Jerry's truck @Boss Hog . His truck was repainted shortly after that event. Hopefully he can come this year, I believe he was in the process of moving last year. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
