    Thanks for the response rabbiporkchop. I was beginning to think that I was being snubbed on this forum:mad: Yeah his shop was about a mile north outside the loop on the southbound side on hwy 59. That was long ago in a galaxy far far away:) All the old time truckers knew this guy way back when. Prolly passed away by now. I just wanted to see if anybody remembered him. Have a safe day out there on the blacktop!!!

    Cool. I moved up there and was there about there a year or so. I had a best friend had moved up there when he was a kid and I went to spend a couple weeks up there in the summer. Had some fun times. I discovered his shop one day and popped in and he had a side room filled with vintage tube amps and old radios. We got to be friends and he would let me dig thru his old gear. I had a golden eagle base station running about 2k and when I dropped the hammer the whole county went deaf;) They won’t ever forget the old midnight rider up that way for sure
