I use to work with grown-ups in the Air Force - but this bunch astounds me daily - its like the group I really perfer to be with once ya sort em all out (if ya know what I mean).
Scarey part is - its like dealing with myself except I am a little more distorted than others
but anyone that jumps out of a perfectly good airplane/balloon/tower has to be totally nuts to start with.
My gracious humble bow to my fellow members - YOU GUYS AMAZE ME
and I am proud to know each one of you as I meet you eye ball to eye ball.
Did someone say Mushrooms - I wonder what the SUGAR content is ?????
OH YEAH - PB - ONE MORE WEEK AND I GET TO EAT

If we had some main bearings the engine would have been put together today Zout.
We did some more cleaning/polishing and Tony painted some bolt-on stuff...it's purdy!!
Didn't take any pics cause I swapped vehicles at home and of course the camera was in the car!!
Yep...one more week Zout, you will drive yer M43 around the compound.

You got tired of this?!?
This seems to be one of the only threads on this site that is almost constantly updated with pics and info nearly every day. Throw in the characters of Z, PB, and Tigger, plus a couple others, and it makes one **** of a thread. Thanks guys. I don't know many other people who can turn around an M43 in a few weeks....

You guys just amuse easily - that's all 
If he thought the 43 was something - he should see the 2 M109's made into full RV units I had posted here - I think I had like 880 pic's plus crap load of other posts I had DH remove a few months back. You just have to see em up close now to get the idea - Dingers unit I fab'd and entire ac retrofit kit to and it will freeze you outa the cab. Not the roof kind - engine mounted ac compressor system.
We did those in 9 months time. I worked all week on them - Dinger would come down from Cummins Sundays and work around 7 hrs on them - rest was my time. I would never do it again though.
My favorite - is that 43 my friend sold to me - now that baby rocks. He knows I am flat jumping outta my skin to head down there Sat am early to have breakfast and go work.

Ok Here are my guess’s at the SURPRISE:
1. You have moved your AO and not going to tell me – I will be coming to an empty lot Saturday – haha
2. Someone fired up the personnel heater and burned out the back of the ambulance.
3. The tires that were on the 43 – really look better on YOUR ambulance – again haha
4. The engine is made to run backwards !!
5. You have saved a collection of possum for WM – and storing them in the back till the rally.
6. There is a bag of hidden fish rotting in the back – and I get to be the first to open the back doors Saturday
7. The Red Cross’s look better with bulls eyes painted in them – really hahaah
8. No really – someone practiced to center in before the bulls eyes were removed – I now have bullet holes.
9. New engine looks better in PB’s ambulance.
