Fords, huh….
THAT went downhill fast.
Those modified ’57s are a crime.
He meant “things you can’t a Ford”
Um… is #10 a Ford? Looks more like a Chevy to me.
Quite a Few non-Fords in the collection, Bill.
CederQ wanted you to pay attention…
No, just under some heavy duty pain meds and trying to focus. I got a deep penetrating wound in my left ankle opposite side from my venous ulcer that has plagued me for over five years. It supposed to be Old Truck Tuesday, but I used a template draft of that twatter post Phil had sent me and forgot to change the header before I had scheduled the post. So I guess shoot me and put me out of my misery!
Did Guido finally bite you? 😁
Seriously though, my prayers are with you.
Sandy, no, she has no front teeth. I stepped(stumbled) on a 3/8ths inch rebar and it flipped up and punctured about 1 1/2 inches in and then rotated up while still inside and ripped about 3/4s of an inch gash, it tore my Lateral Collateral Ligament at the base of the L Tibia which happens to anchor and stabilize the Tibia… So it is sore and I walk funny. Guido has bitten me on a couple of times when she had and after having none, most of the time I deserved it.
Get well soon Gimpy!
Thank you! I may need you Dmm as my care giver and blind guide… with the same infirmity that we share it would make quite a pair…
That’s sounds like a lame ( pun intended ) try at getting an invite to go to Wyoming.
Seriously though, feel better soon.
Man-o-man, you are in my prayers.
It’s amazing what people can do with a welding torch and too much time on their hands.
Ole Grumpy on the dry side. (Not so dry today)
Some real Gems of Redneck Engineering in there, CederQ, #4 looks like if it were ‘Finished’ it would be good. I wonder if #8 is a true ‘Push-you-Pull-Me’, able to be Driven from either Cab. 6-Wheelers are always Entertaining, beginning with the Dodge Military WC-63 6 x 6 from WWII.
No, no. It’s ok Mr President, we all make mistakes………
Yeah, that first one made me all tingly.

I thought that was Vice Grip Garages lawn when it first started rolling. He’s done some cool Ford restorations but I think he’s more of a Chevrolette guy.
Well, my morning comment seems to have disappeared into the bit bucket in the sky. So I’ll repeat myself. For a ratrod I like #4. I just hope he’s got something better than the original gutless 144 or the not much better 170 in it. And ratrods are not supposed to be “pretty”.
Greg, I didn’t see your comment. It wasn’t in spam or the trash. Are you sure you hit the publish button and not the cancel by mistake?
Thanks for checking CQ. There was some sort of error message the first time, so I hit publish again. I don’t want to have duplicate comments, so I just went on. It’s what I get for trying to comment from a “smartass” phone.
I got your back Greg! Duplicate comments will be trashed. I see them on the dashboard screen and are together so it is easy to spot them. So get yourself a dumb phone and you will be set…
