I can't blame you for shutting it down, I remember when I got my Sweptline how much more active this site was, is this forum going to be archived? There's troves of invaluable information on here, it was indeed a great run. I still daily my Sweptline to this day as my only transportation, and it does that exceptionally well. I'm sure this site was responsible for the revival of many of these trucks that would have just been left to rot, I thank you for that greatly.

For the record Scott and I do a ton behind the scenes to keep this site online and running.
If you want to help please go to the home page and donate. Every little bit helps. This site isn’t expensive to keep online but it does add up.

Same with the DTA, Phil and I were keeping the DTA going, but it seems the majority of people hang here and the participation lately was almost nothing over the last couple years. Even myself included, trying to participate on the forums these days is tough......especially with the social media being so popular now and connecting with people directly and instantly one on one vs signing in on the pc and waiting for reply's etc. Totally different world today.
The end of an era. I miss talking with Gordo and wonder how he is doing now. It was good of you to keep the DTA going after Norm's passing, Mark.
I haven't owned a sweptline truck for close to ten years now but I still like to lurk every now and then. Take care!
I sold all of my sweptline trucks,except the invisible one. I just couldn't stand to see it go!

What is the link to the FB DTA group. Honestly not sure if I'm a member on it.
I'm pretty sure your in the group....61-71 Sweptline Dodge Truck Association
I have the red 66 W300 utiline as the group photo.
Hey Mark,
Do you have MoparNorms family contact email?
I have his built Poly 318 and am installing it in a 66 Town Wagon.
He had his ImageEvent photo albums that I used to reference regularly. The albums need to be renewed to view and I would like to see what it would cost to get them open again. Trying to see what else was done to this Poly 318.
Thanks,
Rob

The "parts pile" lives again?
btw Rob, I've posted a link to your 6BT build from Norm's site numerous times for those contemplating the same. Sadly, when I went looking for that thread recently that's the first time I saw the blank page on the DTA forum.
