No Dewey, it's one I started after my son wrecked his, and just haven't gotten to it yet.
Should have taken better care of my self, but never expected to live this long.
The madam won't drive one for she's afraid she might hurt it. LOL

Just in case you may think that we drive our T, with trouble free miles - - This was the outcome of loosing 14 pushrods. Valentine, Nebraska is quite close to the "Middle of Nowhere". Rent a car, drive 1000 miles home, sleep for 4, load rental, drive back, drop off rental, load T and trailer, sleep 12, and haul it home. We drove 4,000 miles and made it a 1,000 :?: :?: :?: :?:
If you look close, you can see the tip of the pushrod behind the spring :? :? :? :?

Hey boys and girls, here is a update on the swamp tour. I was reminded by a member that some of the women (and men) may not want to go on the swamp tour, for whatever reason, fear of boats, water etc. well we have taken care of that. i wouldnt want anyone to miss out on some of the prettiest cruising of the weekend cause they dont want to go on the swamp tour. The landing that we chose, is a unique place. The manager, Pam is a awesome lady and there are plenty of places to sit and relax and just enjoy looking at the water or staying inside and visiting and talking to some of the cajun tour guides who are not out on the boats, they are very entertaining. The owner of the landing along with his guides are all car buffs, the owner himself has a rat rod. If you dont want to be by the water, you can visit some unique places in this small cajun town called Breaux Bridge, it is the crawfish capitol. So even if you dont plan on going on the swamp tour, you can still enjoy the cruise to and from and you wont want to miss out on some great eating in this little cajun town. Thanks, if u have any questions feel free to ask.

Old pix, from failed Route 66 trip 2014. We made the Rt66 trip last summer, T all the way...
Oh yeh - - the T will be heading south on the morning of 31 March!

I stand corrected. It was last year we did RT.66, 2015!!! DUH :? :? :? :?

There is one place i didnt have time to fit in over the 3 days that im thinking of that maybe on tue or wed, we can make a cruise to it for lunch. will be a nice ride and have some great food.

Fried Catfish is the cats meow for me. Doesn't have to be Mom n Pop, but we like to do our thing for the local when we can
