Brent, I could see the need for the mask if the truck was churning out pollutants.  And I ought to report you to the authorities for energy wasting....you would do well to put a spit in front of that heater and at least grill up a tree rat (squirrel) or other timely recovered road kills....and get away from that bread.

I've never made it out there.  Thought I could join in via virtual so I pulled the beast out into the sunlight today, placed the box on the frame and snapped a couple pics.  haven't had a chance to get it back in the garage since FEF showed up but I've been busy.  Number 8 since he left is getting fairly close to being finished and since it's my own, I'm not on a time schedule.  It's literally been a ground up build.

it seems like all the parts I’ve gotten from this forum have come from out west or the mid-west.  Definitely western influence.

Though I have never made it to the BBQ, I have long wanted to come, since I am only a few hours away.

 

So for the truck lovers in angst today, some old shots from my gallery.

These old trucks are all sitting up on Pacheco Pass road, but you can't buy them. It's an outdoor museum of old farm and road machines.

We’ll, I’m a day late to the BBQ, but here’s my contribution.

 

I showed up at the ranch in Clements this morning, but the gate was locked and everyone had already left, ?

 

Just finished bush-hogging and thought I’d share my lunch with you fellers, since I had to share with our barn cat, Berlioz anyhow.

Hmmmm...good question....ever seen a 13th floor elevator?

Maybe we should stay away from that number and use it as just a memory...what say you Tim. Got a year to ponder that one!

I'm so sorry Roland.....I was busy working on fences and didn't even bother to open the gates! I was convinced that no one would brave the weather. I'll make it up to you next year my friend.
