1- Been around the trucks my entire life.
2-Ended up working with the trucks for a very long time with the Forest Service.
3- Had a collection of about 21 trucks at one time.
4- Divorce took it all away.
5- Started over, through many, many, many connections.
6- Retired from Forest Service this past July, with intentions of doing this Power Wagon thing 'till I drop dead.
7- Now doing the Power Wagon thing.
8- Have sorta lost interest in Power Wagon thing (discovered speed)(not the drug....)
9 Selling off Power Wagons and effects to do Challengers....they are faster, more apealling(depending on your tastes), and bad girls love them.
10- I will never stop working on them or restoring them, I just have what I want now, and am gearing up for the major leagues...
That's it in a nut shell. I have never considered this a business. I look at it as helping friends that help me. That's why I work fairly cheap. I am not out to make a killing on this, just put together some nice things to pass along to my family when the time comes. Each one that I have done has either brought a loss or break even, except the 71 W300. I suspect the Challenger thing will change that....one more thing.....my door is always open to nice people that have a common interest. You never stop learning, no matter what. Some for better, some for worse. I have met some of the coolest people in doing all this, and I am eternaly grateful for making their acquantance, most of them here on this great site! Hope you can stop out some day, Bill....
