    It has stopped raining in So. Cal. for the moment , it rained again last night and will begin again Wednesday , ruining my entire Holiday Vacation :mad: .

    At least I have a nice old GMC pickup to safely ride in the wet with.....

    As it was dry to-day I vacuumed the carpet :rolleyes: .

    Great photos. Pretty much the same thing here in Hampton. We ended up with about 13" or so. They say it doesn't usually snow like this over here but I'm not so sure!

    We got over 12" in NYC from that storm.

    It's quite a bit early for that much snow.

    When I started pushing the snow off my road, I got my 1984 K20 stuck in the drainange ditch.

    A little help from my dad, a 4X4 tractor and a chain.......

    The road is now passable with the 2X's

    Nate, it can't be all that bad round your way, unless you park that truck up in a vault at night! What with all that bling bling christmas deco all over it:D

    Either that or your top dog mr scary in your state!

    Christmas Cheer

    Well ;

    I can't park anything out side if I want it to be there in the morning...... :rolleyes: .

    This old long bed 6 Banger manual tranny truck is WORTHLESS in Los Angeles ~ it has to be a short bed , V-8 slushbox tranny to begin to register here .

    I like it quite a bit as does Shirley who's beginning to ask me to re paint it now that I've rebuilt the dash board and made it look nice :rolleyes: .

    In Kansas or the South , they'd fight over a nice clean rust free work truck like this , here no one even glance at it twice .

    The day after this picture was taken ,I replaced the front bumper with a nice
    chrome one and not a Chinese POC either ~ an original that's been re-chromed as GM cheaped out BIG TIME when making these fine old rigs .

    I try hard to not scare anyone but I'm still a ' red flag ' employee :rolleyes: .
