It would seem that this part of the forums is limited to 6 pages of inputs. Seems that way anyhow, since I have posted twice and recieved comments, yet cant see anyof them. Somewhere there is a 7th page, but it aint showin up!!!!
ANYway, for those folks that were following my madness on my old thread:

I have updates!

OK, the big things that haven't shown up:
*I haven't gotten much further on the Bomber other than completeing the rear metalwork for the deck lid frame, and she's now in storage.
*The reason would be I took my old early 70's Coca-Cola bottle vending machine out of stoarge & stripped it down to parade rest. EVERY part came out and the big components are off at the powder coaters to get refinished. All of the white parts are done, but backordered on the red. lookin forward to getting that old beast up & running again.
* And the big winner is,... I got a new truck!
Well, she turned 50 this year, but she's still new dammit!!!




She's a 1956 GMC 2-ton dump truck. I-6, 4-speed w. 2-speed rear, all original and all there! Ugly as sin, but other than the expected rust in the usual places there's very little damage to the sheet metal. Only issue is the brakes are marginal and it's stuck in low (top speed, a blazing 35MPH). Paid a lil more than I wanted to, but the guy wasn't budging for anyone.
Attepted to drive it home, thought better of it, and had it towed to a tire shop to get the brakes eyeballed and buy her some new shoes. Rubber is on order, and I have decided I really dont wanna have to buy any more, coz 6 heavy truck tires plus tubes HURTS!

Yeah, like I dont have enough crap to spend money on allready,...
