I realised that you were not being disrespectful as you would not have commented in that fashion if you knew what it was about, I just felt that it was easier to let you know why I have these comments there to prevent any posibility of problems.

Good on you.

Looks great.

I don't know if ya'll remember, I bought a blue 69 CC Camper Special with the 383/727...it had some trouble running...well after I changed out the plugs...it runs like a top! The guy I bought the truck from told me he changed the plugs/wires/cap/rotor.....SO much for taking him at his word!! Oh wel...

when I was 16 I wanted to buy this International from work (same as the dodges over here)
But I had invested the money that I had about a month earlier ( not that I had A lot)
then in my thirties I bought a 200 series pickup because it was cheap.
then I got the bug.

now the bug has taken over
