This would be a great incentive for me to get my rear in gear and finish my m37b1. But its still a heck of a drive out to the starting point from Wisconsin

That will work, Thanks

I'm wondering if anyone here is planning on going to the Iola, Wis MV show and swap this weekend? They are going to be auctioning off some of Chet Krause's vehicles on Friday the 13th. The show and parts swap meet is on Saturday and Sunday the 14 - 15 of August .

Last year when I needed to blast my frame, rims and a bunch of other stuff I came out to my big truck shop and used our Ingersol Rand 185 compressor. That thing puts out 185 cfm and I use a 100 lb pressurized sand pot. I went through 2000 lbs of sand pretty fast, and I did it down in our sand pit so...

At least now our mv's will be better defined with the WiDot so they can get some statistical information on them. :D It is a good start in the right direction. I was at most of the public hearings with the dot and senate commitees (missed the last one) and it was interesting to say the least. The MV...

Thanks guys,
I was just about to ask the same question now that I am finally able to start painting things.
