Not a whole lot of room left. 7 deuces, 3 M105s, a mule and one yellow labbie has taken up most of my room.
I could probably squeeze it in but I'd have to fairly compensated. :D
Yes, you do have that right. If someone comes onto your property and starts yammering about magical golden tablets and seer stones, you can eject them as you please.
How long do you think Wal-Mart (or Bank of America, Apple, etc.) would let you stand in one of their stores and go on about...
A. Some other South Carolinian brings an empty trailer with them and hauls it back.
B. Ferro brings a LOT of oxygen and acetylene to the rally and hauls the old bed back in trash bags.
You need to get the seller of the wrecker bed to bring it to the rally, as a condition of sale .
:D
Then you bring your wrecker on the trailer.
Problem solved!
It is about 3500 feet from the old place. All we've done is moved a block.
There is plenty of room for a 5th wheel-in fact, much more than last year and much easier to maneuver.
That's no problem on the showers, it appears D-town has upgraded their facilities, so we should be good.
But I'll tell you what you can help us with........... 8-)
The MKT crew needs a way to pipe the waste water from dish washing and hand cleaning stations away from their area so it doesn't...
Army Motors had a great article about the development of the pipeline trucks, starting with the CCKW and going through the Reo series. The 5 ton pictured above was in the article as well.
That one is from Full Metal Jacket, the Kubrick movie.
That shot is from Olive-Drab's webpage about the mule:

Welcome to the site, we have several Australian members.
Your project is a big one-hope you have plenty of welding wire. :D

I will work on a list of the departed. How far back are we going? This year, last year, 5 years, etc.?
What I can think of, in no order

Wreckerman had mentioned it, I will let him run it (if he desires-keep in mind his plate is full). If he doesn't want to, I suspect one of you scholarly gentlemen with military experience is qualified.
Saturday evening is probably better.
I will prepare a list of names of the departed.
There was some unhappiness a couple years ago due to the way the show was laid out but last year, I understand it was far better.
I would not hesitate to go again, I was simply saying I couldn't go this year due to time constraints for me because of personal projects and the upcoming Ga Rally.
Alright, listen up folks.
We're 30 days out.
Make sure you have serviced your vehicles and made sure you are mechanically good to go.
Make a list of what you need to bring-little things like sunblock, hats, sunglasses, etc.
I have already started preparing our vehicles-I serviced the M105...
I can see how someone might think that-it's obvious to me that a section like that is for website issues, but I am special (my Mom always tells me so!).
.
If you were closer (or had unlimited transport dollars) I could do it after the Ga. Rally.
I am not sure how much labor I would charge for...
