Trail Talk / Re: Were back again !!!
« on: July 14, 2018, 04:25:51 pm »

   Got my old computer back today.
David I got the libraran to help me the other day. I showed her the nt site & when she
 saw the members pages she got an idea from it.  She cut/paste/ & who knows what else but we managed to get 31 sent off. I got answers back from 14 so far. It seems something like transfering pics from photobucket.
   Any one that got my message can tell their friends to tell their friends . I will pick at this from here.

Wooden Bombardiers / Re: OT'S 47-51 ??? Rebuild ??
« on: October 26, 2013, 06:34:28 am »

   Dave it's slow, very slow ! I have a diff ready to install, rad, need to get a drive shaft made, Retmech wired up a temporary dash for me so I can start the engine once in awhile to keep everything oiled up. I have a back load of grousers waiting to be cleaned up.
 There's a big roll of belting out by the side of my shed waiting to be cut into track belting for myself & Mike. There is an old woody in the woods that I want a couple parts from. There is lots of things I could be doing but first I have to get rid of the Couch Potato Syndrome. It's hard to shake clear.
   I have been talking to a fellow that lives up north from me that is building a R12 from a J5. I have seen it & it looks alright. Something like Dan Shavers, in size. I am gearing up a trip for up that way soon & will take my camera with me. Dave you got a spare # 12 steel nose boot around ? I think I can use it !!!

                                                                       OT's still around, just " A SLACKING "

  Here is a pic that Rattleman shared with me. I can't seem to put the pic on,
but I think this link will work. Nice picture !!! The roof rack looks great for those hauling building materials into the cabin...

  How about the windows in Mike's 57 rebuild ?? I think they look & function pretty good. They are from the sleeper in an International truck. Look up sliding windows started by Skenman
