I'm in Falls City, west of Salem. Last time I was in your area the clutch went out on my Beemer. My buddy I was visiting moved to Banks so I doubt I'll be down again any time soon.

I am in Junction City just about 6 miles north of Eugene Airport o HWY 99S. I work at D and L truck parts during the day and own a gauge restoration business.

I will probably see some of you at some swap meets here and there.

Take care,
Tom

Thanks. Funny you mention it, my truck used to be a firewood truck. It was owned by a tree farm, and they sold firewood in the off season.

I guess you're jealous of the 10 or more inches of rain I'm getting in the coast range today? Dang, I didn't think so either.

I guess I'm thankful that fire season is over. Now it's flood season.

What kind of rig do you have? I have a 46 3/4 ton and I'm trying to find a 41-46 to compare my radiator v brace with. I think mine is bent but have nothing to judge it against. Thanks

Nice. Thanks for the reply. Don't think you have the same parts as me. Mine has been "in process" for about 5 years and is painfully close to being "done". Learned lots of lessons, many the hard way, with this one.
