    Set the windshield frame with new glass in place last night, set the drivers seat in place as well. Be working on wiring to the tail lights today hopefully along with nerf bars and left fender.

    Noticed a small stream of antifreeze along the top of the radiator where the solder holds the tank on, I’ll check the upper hose connection first, but fear the radiator I spent $150 on to get repaired and tested is leaking…..

    That white CJ7 is missing the set of legs that were insured for a million $$…:D

    I keep telling Mrs. Oldskool that I want to put a factory style “renegade” decal set on it, man she just fumes at me lol…. No!! I want to see it all together before you do anything else with it she says lol.

    You and @Oxbow going to bring a banjo and guitar? I hear folk your part of the state are somewhat musically inclined.
    That potato hooch down your way takes some getting used to, kicks like a mule. Idaho spuds!

    I'm pretty sure @Big Road Skateboard runs Whitebird and Lewiston grades, he can let everyone know what's needed to get the winners trophy.

    For as Mormon as our part of the state is we are sure getting a lot of distilleries here, and not just vodka.

    Don’t know about @Oxbow but musical gene skipped me— I think I sound pretty good after 5 or 6 buckskins but others have strongly indicated otherwise

    @Oxbow @tramm01 you guys put any of your equipment on fires? Right now money is ridiculous good. Can't get a water truck, lowboy, dozer, or logging equipment here they're all down in Oregon. Dump driver hauling for a contractor went to LaPine to drive water truck last week- $500/day. Another guy has both his lowboys down there, calling around looking for drivers- I understand new rule driver can't work more than 14 days straight, need to get a replacement or they give the slot to the next truck on the list. Paying something around $2,800/day to have a woods lowboy sitting on-call.

    I have never looked into it as our equipment typically doesn't meet what I assume are specs for fires. I don't have sweeps on our dozer, and by the looks of the trailers hauling fire dozers here our 48' lowboy (similar to the one behind that KW with the rock on it that you posted) does not qualify either. Our tractor sure would though.
