Well I've been here for over 3 weeks and I'm just now setting down to a computer. It's hard to get away from the access to so much Power Wagon stuff. I have seen Dave has been working to get parts made. He has some of Dodge's original tooling and is having craftsmen create the tooling he dosen't have for some parts. I saw Butch and Jason stop in and grab some axles only to show up later with muddy trucks looking for a lockout hub. Benny and Phil Benard are already right at home in the shop working on a WC. I see there is a 6X6 in the yard, I have always like those PW's. Dave has added more containers for storage of parts. I have worked on my truck replacing the intake/exhaust studs and I'm now working on my PTO unit that "Primitive Pete" ruined by welding on the front yoke. I was told it can be a real pain to get out. I lucked out as once I finally got the bolts out it nearly fell on me. The Jersey Devil aka Bob Decker is helping me prepare the PTO for reinstallation. Bob also helped recover my host for may vacation Mike VanBuskirk's crewcab PW from it's resting place back in the woods since March. Well I have to run to get hamburger patties for todays dinner. I hope Lee and Ed feel like cooking again this year. cya later
