My truck club has a portion of their website that lists trucks that are for sale. Most of them are high dollar (almost) show trucks or really nice drivers. They are way to high for the average person to buy. Now if we have any rich members... They have a 53 F-100 (ford 50th anniversary...

I just wanted to let you know. I was just talking to Tyler and he told me his dad is in the hospital. He went in sometime this morning. He has (forgive my spelling) pneumonia and emphysema. They have him on oxygen, but apparently the levels are still lower than they want. Tyler and his mom...

I heard (saw) that parts of MO were supposed to get some white stuff tonight. Anything going on where you are? Chance of flurries down here...

Just throwing out ideas guys! We are starting to get quite a few really good tech articles (threads) Like the one that Texasnomad just did. I know Ryan and several other have posted them. How about turning them into actual HTML articles? Then post all the articles in links on a "Tech...

I thought this was cool. There is a tourist trap down near Conway, AR that is called "Pickles Gap Village". No clue where they got the stupid name, but...they have two 1956 Ford fire trucks parked there. No...other than taking the pics..I have never been in this place. One looks like it is...

hello all, I was just wondering if there was anything going on up in Muissouri after the first of the year? I have not seen lists of any car events yet (they don't get going until it warms up some), but what else goes on up there while it is still cold? Just curious, Brian

OK...here goes. You can laugh all you want, but I want/need to know. What is the difference between the diesel fuel in the pumps marked off-road only (or non-highway use) and the normal diesel fuel that goes into the pickups? I have never been around farm equipment or driven a diesel...

Hello all, This was just over a 500 mile weekend. I left the house at 5:15 AM Saturday. I met my truck Club (some of them) in Springfield, MO Saturday and headed for Kansas. We picked up a couple along the way. Once we made it up to Paola, we met up with a few more. We had a nice b...

smiliehijacked Are you sure it is a 63? I thought they did not start using that until 64. I thought the cars had the Y-block still through 63. The trucks had the Y-block until 64. Just curious. Now...back to your regular thread.:)

I know, I know...not a car show:headbang: , but this seemed like the best place to post a link. This museum is on top of Petit Jean Mountain (state park), near Morrilton, AR. They have JFKs personal car (lincoln), several of the Winthrop Rockefeller's cars (big wig in AR-related to the NY...

Hello all. The car event season is not over for a couple more months.:) I just found this website that has a list. They update it as more come in. If anyone is interested in shows (even for next year), you might want to bookmark it. http://www.universityheightslionsclub.com/maacc.htm...

Hello MO members, I live in the middle of nowhere, but I just found out today that the Street Machine fall Nationals is going to be held in Springfield September 12Th-14Th. Main event page: http://www.streetmachinenationals.net/event/28 Event schedule (pdf)...

I was just thinking.....boy is that dangerous!!! :hammer: Several of us attend car shows and cruise ins a lot. We usually try to post links to all our pictures in a new thread. Typically that is in the general conversations area. How about a specific place for those threads, like a...

Hello all, This should probably be in the classifieds, but I cannot drive and strip a car that is somewhere half way across the country. I am asking the MO members first. Maybe one of you knows of a local salvage yard that has really old cars in it? Bill (BKW-Numberdummy) has been...

Hello all, I might be picking up a hitch (or my brother might) tomorrow in Springfield for $25. It is supposed to fit this generation of truck (F-250). I just need the tube part in order to make one for my truck. However, I do not have one of these around to measure to see how wide the...

No...I don't want a show truck or anything. LOL My 56 has quite a few pieces of very old chrome under the hood. It is nasty down in the crevices and places where my fat fingers just cannot get to. The valve covers, water pump, water pump pulley, fan, and the thermostat housing were all...

AR will not have one. I am the only semi-active member from down here.

I ran a search, but have not found anything. If this is a repost, just delete it and point me in the right direction. What is the size limit that is imposed on this site for the sig banner things that Chris has been making? I am/will be playing for a while. :wavey:

I don't know that the software the site uses will support it, but I sometimes want to make multiple quotes from different members in one post. I can do it manually (just take a while). Does the software offer that option and what does everyone think about it being turned on if it does? I...

Hi all, There is supposed to be a large "cruise" in Miami, OK on July 26th. The time is 6 PM. My truck club (Show Me F-100s) will meet in Springfield that morning and convoy over. We will have a cookout at some members house and then join the cruise. I will attend as well, if I am not...

I have been tinkering again. Bob wrote an excellent article a while back about "truck" mirrors.Link to Article:http://www.fatfenderedtrucks.com/mirror.htmlMy mirrors are shot (flop around) and are totally useless to actually see out of. Also, my dad broke my mirror bracket and the...

I left here about 6:30 am heading to Springfield, MO. I was not paying attention twice in the 55 zones. I looked down and was running 70. OOPS! 'smiliedoh' 'smiliedoh' Later the limit was 65, so I ran that. At one point around Springfield it was 70. I ran 75 just to see if it would. No...

This week has been great for the most part.Tuesday I drove the truck out to the Dam (overlooking lake and river) for our club meeting.Friday was a local cruise in with about 30 vehicles. I am surprised since it was supposed to be pouring rain.Saturday was a parade and car show. The town...

Headed to Little Rock. Got a call for another possible kidney match. We will see. Gotta go!

Is it just me or is the site experiencing problems? Tons of extremely slow loads, no loads, smilies not showing up, multiple posts. Maybe it is just me? :headbang:

I just wanted to let you know that your all time favorite movie is going to be on TV this weekend. It stars your all time favorite character too. Is your favorite character?: NO! Is this your favorite character?: NO! Oh....I know...This is your favorite character!!!!:

One of the other sites I visit sometimes has a "view unanswered posts" button.I am not talking about new posts (which I use here all the time).These are threads that were started and have no replies at all. I just found one here by accident that had been posted in mid February. I replied to...

I need to start looking for some tires for the 56. I am broke (as usual) so I thought I would ask you for some brand and model ideas.The 4 tires that are on the ground are used ones I bought about 2 years ago for $80 (mounted and balanced). The one on the spare is an old bias ply that was...

The title asks the question. I was digging around in my user profile and found a "download Vcard". It actually downloads something (which I did not do), so I had to ask. What is it?I am not familiar with that term or what it might be.Thanks, Brian

I am bored and not sleepy. LOLOn several other sites, the admins, mods, techs, etc. are different colors on the bottom of the main page that shows who is logged in. General members are all the same color.That makes it easy to PM whoever is online at the time for assistance or for a problem...
