Everybody with a Big Bolt, hop in, crank it up, and drive up to the front. This could change, but Big Bolts is ahead of everything else in the forum. Nuthin' special, but feels good, anyway!
Thanks John and Peggy, for gettin' rid of that fool Lounge and movin' us Big Bolt fellers to the front of the bunch of ol' Stovebolts.
I trust that those of us who have made friends and acquaintences here are a small payment for all your efforts and hard work. You are appreciated more than you know.
Drivin' down a 2 lane country road in a stovebolt.....cowboy, it don't get no better than this!

I love driving this truck around, I had to pick up my 14 year grand daughter today at a school function,she got all excited to see me coming. At first I thought she might be embarrased to get the old truck, but she said the boys approved, good enough for her!!! | | | | | Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 2,549 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 2,549 | Noth'in like own'in, a "Big Bolt", especially if it's a COE. Had a nice weekend, got alot done. Worked on the Holmes W45, did a little to the '54 Tandem COE, even went out in the country, & pulled a 2 spd. rear axle assembly, out of one of the '48 6400 parts trucks I own. Man!, what a "Fun", weekend. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 1,144 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 1,144 | I thought at first it was done in alphabetical order but looking at the list I see it's not the case. Perhaps the positioning will generate more activity. Didn't do much with either truck but didwork on leveling the site for their new home. | | | | | Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 Extreme Gabster | | Extreme Gabster Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 | I pulled down a dead oak with my yard dog Friday.
Made me proud. It was round 2 of the deal. I tried to pull it down last spring. That bout ended in a draw with the 53's front wheels in the air. This time the tree came down.

Hmmmmmm, Big Bolts moves to the top .... Editor owns a Big Bolt .... hmmmm, funny how that works, isn't it? I did drive something massive the other day, but it wasn't a 'Bolt. John Big Bolts -- because SIZE MATTERS!!

I always get coments on my 46 and people wanting to buy it | | | | | Joined: Aug 2002 Posts: 221 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Aug 2002 Posts: 221 | I like the idea that 'big bolts' are admired and put 'front and centre'. Here are some shots from a local 'drive-in' a couple of weeks ago. A pair of 46's that look pretty good to me. (mine is the one with no lettering) Not sure too many saw these a while back.

Foster -- I was a-wondering when / if we'd hear from you -- a voice of reason.
The hardest part of pulling the Lounge was the idea that it was a good place to meet folks. But we believe that will happen anyway.
Cletis -- you sound like John. Glad the Yard Dog won. Would hate to have gotten a bad report on that one.
