Re: Laughter is the Best Medicine.....

This isn’t so much a joke as an anecdote: When my boys were young one of them was acting a bit worried one evening. I didn’t ask what was on his mind because they usually would come clean when it was time to tuck in. So that evening when I brought the ritualized Dixie cup of sweet tea, his eyes well...

Re: m-37 budd wheel modification

Ric Tudor who is a great source of PW parts was making a 17" wheel. He had a set on his truck at the Iowa rally and they looked great. I believe VPW is handling production and marketing now but Ric is very approachable about the details of his process.

Re: Finally able to drive my M37 again.

Sounds like you've been down a patch of rough road there Jim. I'm with you and MM on the thyroid issue. In my case it was chemo that threw mine out of trim. They are starting to get a handle on it but I haven't enjoyed the process.
We're all glad you can drive your truck again.
