forxlr8n Posted December 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 Last night a friend and his brother was helping me bring it back. I was cleaning the inside and believe it or not but it's coming around. There was more junk and trash not so much nasty. "If you can not measure it, you can not improve it."

Or he found a buyer willing to pay $10k each for the seats and used that to help pay for the 07. I'd tell you what I paid for it but why make people mad or be a bragger.

Your deal doesn't make me mad, sometimes my own choices make me mad. 😜 I'm saving up to buy a NOX sensor for my 2013. 😬😬 I wanna know how to remove my interior in record time too, but I always have a bucket of spare parts leftover.

JPL Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 Fox I'm The Old Sailor down in Chesapeake. Aren't you up in Radford? We came by there in (25th)Sept on our way West and back the 9th of Nov. Had a great trip except for a Super 10 problem in Roanoke. Western Branch Diesel did a great job for us. They could have taken us to the cleaners but didn't. Your New truck sure looks good. Are you putting those seats you had in it? Sounds like a great project and I hope to get up there to see it 1st hand. So take it easy and you and yours have a Merry Christmas.

Pat The Old Sailor Well, I'm getting Christmas day off. Started this run on Dec 4. and I think it will end on Jan 5 or it could be the 12th. Was told there was 1300 trucks ordered last week. Santa did drop off the Direc Brake box last night and the Jackalopee is ecpected anyday. As you can see my 28 X 52 shop isn't quite tall enough for the Volvo.
