@OKT4RCPL thanks!

On another note:

I pulled the trigger and ordered me some LT265/75/16s for the Taco got them at Discount Tire for $98 a tire. Should be here next week! Also found a used bed for $200! Now I have an excuse for the wife on why I need to #Raptorliner the Taco! LOL!

This is the look I am gonna go for with color setup using the #raptorliner. Shout out to AKsavanaman off of Tacoma World for the inspiration!

@horndogst4r ... looks like that used bed got a little warm.. :astonished:
Thought it was just the taillights at first, like the blinkers had gotten warm.
Didn't even realize the paint had bubbled up.
Look forward to seeing your truck come together.

I have yet to be able to make a Rendezvous(it’s the same weekend as my grandmothers birthday). The only thing somewhat appealing is the Express Rally group.

The Express Rally they're doing in Colorado has my interest. Also Rendezvous for 2020 is going to be same weekend as halloween if I remember correctly. They did say they would do some trick or treating stuff for kiddos.

Finished a long delayed project Took a five dollar surplus shovel from army surplus and a 3 dollar pair of hedge clippers from a yard sale and made myself a krazy beaver style shovel. Dremmeled off in small parts the teeth so as to not over heat the metal and loose temper. Took one of the handles from the clippers and boom. I will probably wrap the handle in sports tape, and am thinking of painting the shovel head flare orange since it will be part of my jeep recovery kit. I have another shovel, and the other handle so will be making another one. So either 80$ for a crazy beaver or less than 7$ for this.

Hi, Jon. Thanks for the net info. Will try to join via the app next week. I'm just getting back into everything and don't even have an HT at the moment. :dizzy:
That's a vanity call. I traded N0FN for it in '12. Got very lucky. Met a couple EARS Hams earlier today at the CORA meeting. Lots of fun stuff scheduled for this year!
