    Good news, the custodian that is a huge CHIEFS fan and lives right around the corner from me bought it.
    Didn’t sell it for the money, it just became clear it was more of a toy than a need.

    ...or in central Texas. He's qualified to work on points ignition.

    I think Zig knew he was in danger of having to drive HIS truck to NH when he finished it before I finished Penny (since I am playing Carpenter), so it was safer to just sell it.

    There's always another project... keep us in the loop Zig.

    And don't be a stranger just because your trusty steed has moved to other pastures.

    Wow... With sadness, I read this thread.
    Zig, I would be happy to follow a thread about you painting your house. Seriously.
    I too am aware of the battle between need/want.

    Steve.

    Cool thing. Turns out there’s lots of little things I need to do to this boat to “make it mine”.
    Sadly, a lot of it revolves around wiring projects.
    So, I’ll still have something to piddle with, just not an AD.

    Hey Paul sad to hear you sold your truck as well. I do miss mine still. However my oldest son is about 9, my 2nd son is 6, my daughter is 4 and my newest son is about to be born. My oldest son wants to get "an old truck like our old blue one" Oh how I can't wait for that. So looking for another one is what I have been doing. Should give me 5 years or so before he is able to drive;)
