Model B bulldog

[Licensed to kill]

Wanted a bulldog for a B model. I don't want to pay a lot but I don't want a good one either. Prefer one that is not a good candidate for restoration (pitted) as it is for a "yard art" truck and a good one might get stollen.

I got ahold of Norman and he said he would look and see if he has one. He will look for a couple other parts that I need but said that he doesn't have much left anymore. Lost much of it to a fire. Thanks for the heads up Bob. Really enjoyed talking to Norman. Really nice guy.

He said that he doesn't have much of anything anymore. He did not elaborate on whether that was due solely to the fire or if he had moved some prior to the fire, just said that he lost some to the fire and no longer has much stuff left.

I'll look in my boxes of stuff.  Maybe I have one?  I do have an extra new one that was given to me.

That’s messed up he was a great guy to do deal with he lives right on a main highway probably some ass clown threw out a cigarette last time I was over there was around six years ago and then he was getting rid of a lot of stuff he didn’t think he was going to need so most of his trucks were probably gone before the fire … bob

a person's idea of "yard art" can be a wide spectrum. a fire job can get a quick spray can overhaul  and not be a priority for a theft . still look good

Perhaps this new format will allow me to post the pic of my yard art. 

Nope. the problem is with my computer (as suspected). I HATE these things.

Just thought I would throw this in here this gorgeous R  model was one of the trucks I was hoping to not get burned up. Norm had just bought this last time I was over there who also had a 95% restored 67.R model in the garage as well. The 67 was coming out real good I mean professional grade restoration on this thing. Would be an awful shame of both of them got burned up. Well I try to upload the photo twice. It won’t take bob

Also had a video clip of Normans garage and his yard. Of course I can’t post it.god dang technologies. Sure it gets annoying sometimes.Bob
