Hi Gang,
With sporadic forum traffic right now it's a good time to do a current roll-call to ensure folks are still around and hopefully doing OK in these difficult times. Also, if you know the whereabouts of any other forum members please provide an update on them as well.

Please reply so we know you're ok-thanks!
Gary

John McNerney still here in Monkton VT with Brutus, my 1951 M37.

I know that powerwagontim is still around here in Monkton as well, since I just dropped "Brutus" at his shop for some work: swapping in a 251 engine, add a winch, rebuild transmission and transfer case, add front disk brakes with power boost.

BTW, Tim's profile lists him as a "Renovation Contractor" (his former finish carpentry business). He closed that business down almost 2 years ago and is now restoring Dodge Power Wagon and M-series trucks full time. His business is Distinctive Restoration, Inc. Tim has won awards for his restoration work.

Update: Tim started work this morning. Pulled the cowl:

Gary -

I do wonder how many members miss the topics posted in the "Announcements" area. I almost missed it myself, since I'm so used to them being older stuff that I've already read that sometimes I skim right by it.

BTW: feel free to delete this post, if it detracts from the main point of the thread

Still at it, since 1998. Almost ready to start over with a re-power.

Hal here in UpState SC, just dropped (figuratively speaking) my transfer case, cleaned and painted it all nice and pretty, and waiting for Charles T to have an appointment for me to bring it up to his place for replacing the seals and gaskets. I have an appointment with my prostate CA oncologist later this week, but thus far still "undetectable' for that CA.

Sitting here with my coffee and Danish, sun in the windows, loving the longer days and sunlight.

All the best guys, and this forum has been an immense help for me in my own M42's rebuild saga...

Everything great in my neck of the woods. Just waiting for some warm weather to get some painting done.

If I go more than a month without updating my builders blog, call my wife and have her pull me out of the shop. If I'm dead, come finish my truck.

Hi all, I’m still checking in time to time. Got lots of green iron to run but waiting for some good rain showers to get all the tons and tons of salt off the roads.

All is well, thanks for asking.
