Don't press your luck!
 Sure, you know how to work on old trucks. Or maybe you're just starting in the hobby. Either way, safety is best learned through OPM (Other Peoples' Mistakes), not OJT!
Either as newly discovered wisdom, or a refresher, please read this article and live safely with your old truck!

Yes. Mongo's Garage Sept. 17th. There is a lot more planning to do, so check in often.
Do a search on FB for "Mongo's Garage"

I usually miss the opportunity to get a shirt, so while I'm here, let me say, please order an XL for me.
Thank you.

Your health comes first Alvin, take care of your back!
And I thought you and Tuts were going to share the ride again?

Are folks getting together on Friday evening? Was wondering the same. Alvin and I should be there Friday afternoon. I take it that we will not be gathering for BBQ as was done in the past?

There will be some kind of gathering Friday afternoon/evening at Mongo’s Garage.
And a slight chance we will be invited to the Alderson’s for BBQ and a tour of their vehicle collection.
Gotta run, pouring concrete today.
