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!

Well Chip......I only drift on by for breakfast here at the spoon every few weeks. But the last update
from the Parris estate do sound pretty positive. The old muscles are the first thing to thin down when
we're laid up and it takes a lot longer to get them back in shape once they've had a few weeks or months
of relaxation.
So, hang in there and work that old body back into shape. Sweetie face has had a couple of bouts with
pneumonia so she's been sedentary for most of the fall. Needless to say she's pretty unsteady right now.
Like our old Stovebolts, if we don't exercise....we get rusty.
So, keep on keepin' on old buddy. We still got another 20 to go.
Hope your 2023 is much better than the last one.

Good to hear you are feeling better. Dr visits keep you going somewhere rather than just sitting at home.
