Re: 1st run of the year
Your truck is looking good. Nothing like the first good drive of the year. I hope to follow suit in a few weeks.

Re: 1st run of the year
Good morning,
I had my M out for the first time this season, for the local St Pats parade, I was not in it but you would never know by all the waves and high fives. I had my grandson (3yo) on for the ride, he loved the sirene. Days are getting warmer and longer feels good to be able to do things outside. I am going to give the M a new paint job this spring, when I got her from the
govt I had her sandblasted and I layed down 3 coats of black prime, to hold back the rust till I decided on a color. The paint came in the mail the other day so now I can get started. If I can figure out how to attach pics, i will when painted.
Hope we all have a great season. BOB
