The Stovebolt Site Forums The Side Lot Annual Stovebolt Reunion (Kansas City) 2007 - Third Annual Stovebolt Reunion

Where the News story about Builder ended: That's one heck of a test drive and education to boot.

Builder planned in one week to get from South Dakota to Kansas City, fixing any problems that might arise, along the way. Using the Stovebolt Forum, Steve was able to line up with Bolters along the route, in case he ran into problems and needed more than just a parking spot to get it back roadworthy. We were impressed with how many Bolters offered help - from garage space to tools (and some food! 😁). Needless to say, he had a real following and a lot of supporters. A few vendors even donated parts for the truck and Builder in turn donated the cost of them back to The Stovebolt Page.

Finally, the IRWIPI truck arrived with much fan fare. This truck was hard to miss.

Once he caught his breath, and greeted folks far and wide, Builder set up to have the folks sign his truck. (pix)




If you're unfamiliar with the It Ran When I Parked It theme, here's some information about it.



In pulling together the story on Builder, I ran across a wonderful story that I wanted to share.

We Did it For the Boys

This is a story that tells a lot about the character of the People of the Bolt.




If you think 2007 story is over: got one more story to tell!
