Rob Posted November 4, 2009 Author Share Posted November 4, 2009 Had to "break down" and take the truck off his hands yesterday. Gentleman would not accept any money and once again said both, "you need that truck" and, "I want you to have it". What's a guy to do? I'll make a spot in the shop and bring it home early next week. Don't want to hook up any electrical juice until I get a look at the wiring due to the mice. Miraculously, the truck does not "stink" like mouse droppings at all, just musty. It looks a lot better rinsed off with a hose!!Think I'll stay with Mack green on this one, but may black the fenders. We'll see.RobGot the title delivered last evening so it's officially mine. Going to transfer it this afternoon with antique plates on.I will be out of the country starting Friday, and will return next Sunday, so I'll get it home after then. Hopefully it won't be freezing cold......Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Rob Posted November 29, 2009 Author Share Posted November 29, 2009 If the rain holds off today it's comming home this afternoon-finally. Haven't received my plates yet but they will be "62 Mack", (antique restoration).Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Rob Posted December 1, 2009 Author Share Posted December 1, 2009 Auto Affairs, that is a great name. Your having an affair on Momma with your Mack's and Momma knows it too. She named it. I always called the business: "The shop".Our 68 Barracuda license plate is "Affair 2". She wouldn't let have either just "Affair", or "Affair 1".Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
