Thats a nice old truck Nick and it can sure use some luv. I like the new bumper on your truck is it going to fit your winch?  It was good to finally see it rolling down the road yesterday.

Hey guys...I have seen a nice Troopy at a transmission shop on the Causeway a few times now...I stopped today to inquire about it and the owner of the shop said that it was not his, but the guy just bought it recently. I gave him a bayou state card and he stapled it the the keys and said that he would make sure the guy got it. I'll be back next week and will bring a camera with me.

Lance saw this one a few weeks ago. He posted it up on this board. I passed it today around 3 pm , I saw it but not you, if you are back in the area let me know and maybe we can grab lunch together some time. Looks real nice from 30 yards away. How does it look up close and is the owner from N.O.?

The owner of the shop said that the guy was local, so I assume he's from somewhere around here...I sitting in the Lakeway Marriott right now, some I'm in town often to take you up on the lunch idea.
It looks pretty good from up close as well...body is decent and the interior is typical. Of course it's not as nice as Scott's  !

Seriously though, that truck looks pretty cool and brings back good memories of the times I spent in one.

Yeah, deciding b/w the garage sale and the scout training seminar is like trying to decide whether to be kicked in the neck or kicked in the balls.... I still think you went with the best choice....lol
Have a good weekend everyone.

Scott,
A while back there was a tread that looked like some of you guys were going to be placing a Metal Tech order...did you guys ever place that?
If so, if there is anyone else interested in getting some Metal Tech parts and want to do a group order to save on some shipping, please let me know. I think that I am going to order the full cage for the Dune Coon.
Thanks,
Eric

Thank you Sir It looks like the old girl just refuses to die giving Mobile and Pensacola hell right now. Just spoke to Dad out in the Gulf and said its bad out there as well 9FT seas and not able to run the boats or helicopters. I hope it calms down so he can fly in this afternoon. You all have a great week I'll try to check in between working on the cabin and the 40
