I have some old accesory catalogs from the 20's and 30's. I would scan some of the more interesting pages if someone would let me know how to do...
I wish I had of known about that. My wife and daughter went to Orlando today and asked me if I wanted to go. I told them I couldn't think of...
Or Jacksonville
I hate it that they did that for the same reasons you all do, but for another reason also. One time when I was about 14-15, I was sitting in the...
Wasn't me, but my son in my truck. Had a 64 Chevy Short Wide Deluxe cab that I had since I was 17. He bugged me to death to drive it to school. I...

Nice truck Mike. Great find, that I would have loved to have made. I had a 67 IH short step side with the 304-4 speed when I was a kid. I could...
Damned, I hadn't thought of that one in a coon's age! It's been 45 years since I was last there. Dang. Here is a website that lists and has...
Shouldn't be a problem at all. One thing you want to do is ALWAYS check their hookup and check the air in the tires on the trailer. Low tires is...
