We (Eric @ Pinkee's) were discussing what I wanted to do with the pick up bed -- wood -- or?? I wanted something more durable - such as the aluminum in my trailer floor..... and the entire bed is going to get bedliner sprayed in it. My intentions are to actually USE this truck.

So then - since he got me thinking about things.... I asked him about what A/C unit to use -- I'm not a fan of Vintage Air.... they're "okay" but I was hoping he had experience with some other brand etc.

Well..... seems it's already installed.

My response to him was -- "WTF I was stoned and I missed it" (anyone remember the song?)

Nope --- but Faceybook is EXACTLY what I knew it was --- "where I ate lunch today" and or -- you post something, and some butthole (a keyboard warrior) posts some dumb response - and then someone else responds, and it turns into a **** show. No thanks. My time is more valuable than that.

I have nothing to show "new" or interesting on Instagram..... nor have I seen anything new or interesting. I don't find it a place to interact and communicate - thus ZERO interest.

Looking good Greg.

Everytime I talk to Eric I ask him about your truck.

Charley and I were just texting -- this will be my last hot rod ever. My plan is for it to be a daily driver -- so nothing too fancy --- but if it's real functional AND a bit hot roddy -- I'm in.

I now have NO TOOLS -- NO SHOP -- NO DESIRE to build or work on this stuff anymore..... And at my age and precarious future -- I'm not going to begin to aquire all the things I've lost. You just can't duplicate things that took a lifetime to gather. Just buying stuff - isn't the same. It was the "environment" and the network of friends....the environment is gone. I still have the friends. That's more important.

I've also found that I can put some guns in the truck - hit the range and what was going to be an hour or two - ends up being all day.... again -- friends are there and we spot for each other or work on the scopes or what have you. I've gotten in to shooting competitively which is fun and you meet fellow idiots....and I love plugging long range precision.... that and my track cars... call it good.
Hitting the range? one shot one life buddy

Wayne -- that's a fact! I've lead a pretty good life.... WTF -- Even when they told me I was a walking dead guy -- My response was "oh well.... it's been a good life"

Greg,
Like you said keep on going.. tear em up at
the track or range or whatever
I was going thru my desk drawer and found something
I put there years ago

"Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in
a well preserved body but rather to Skid in sideways
totally worn out shouting Holly... what a ride"

I have rode dirt bikes, worked hard building things
tearing my body up in every way... now my back is an issue
and it is hard to walk but I still crawl under my cars
and lift tires.. just more slowly.. thankfully no bad
things like you have gone thru

Someone asked me would I do it all over again if I knew
where I would be today.. my answer was in a heart beat

Good to see you are still going at it hard

Bob
