Quick update -- Both Mike B and John V won trophies at the parade today. I would have won, of course, but one of my rotating beacon bulbs was out ...

That and the truck was sputtering like Tilly's mule at the rodeo.
Glad it worked out in Winchester -- the parade today was a wash out -- there were a lot of spectators though -- I was surprised.
I think Mike's thinking hard about rebuilding the brush truck rather than just using the running gear to build yet another (stifle the yawn) flatbed. Let's keep at him
