No we just looked at the shop on 3rd street in town. He invited me out to the farm to look for some missing pieces when I come back with a trailer. It took at a little time to get him talking, but he is a very interesting guy once you get him going. He has had some of the cars in the metal building for over 25 years. The bed and gates on this truck are very nice. Some rust on the front windshield and will need a new wheel well on the right rear where a tire came off driving down the road. No rust on the rockers or inner fender wells. In the pictures it looks pretty bad, but it's the 15 year old clear coat peeling off. Can't wait to get started. :-) singlecabboy <sealingwaxred@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Ronnie,Did Larry take you inside the house? --- Dan Martin wrote: > Sweet! > Get Jake Raby to build you a TIV! > > http://www.aircooledtechnology.com/ > > On Apr 6, 2007, at 3:48 PM, Ronnie Hughes wrote: > > > Here's why I was asking about the Type IV tranny > and Type I > > engine.
