Joe,
All the "stuff" you get involved in, some how makes our buses seem a little less overwhelming. I could use that little camouflage pickup around the farm for many different things.

If u r looking to get that next piece of equipment for the farm and u don't have one of these a Grade-All , that's what I call this, is for sure one of the most versital tools on any jobsite. I need to pull some stuff off this cab and in minutes by myself I've got it right in the middle of all the comforts of home. When im done I'll stick it right back. The machine is used and is almost as easily opporated as a fork and spoon.
Grade all DEFINATLY a cool tool.

How would this do as a hood ornament on my Pete.
Chromed already. 21lb. Ya baby, this would make one with some gerth.
It was picked out of a scrap pile already chromed. It's unbelievable to me that some nitwit through this away for scrap at some point prior to it getting turned into a paperweight. 300 bucks was the asking price, yesrerday. Pinebush equipment.

I located a pair of 20,000lb trailer axles fitted with 12 in brake drums for a custom trailer I'm building to pull behind my Pete. Look what was living in hub number 2. Poor little guys.
Although the coach still looks the same it's got a boatload of doe put into it this year.
After futile attempts at hiring a welder to stretch the frame on the camper I've purchased a gas welder and come spring I'll get er done myself.
I'm parked just a little piece out of Beaumont Texas on Interstate 10 at a Texaco fuel stop True Value Hardware Store.
This is a great idea I've never seen anything like it they're going to do real good here I've been buying all kinds of stuff ever since I got here. A 24-hour hardware store at a fuel stop what a perfect collaboration.
I was able to scarf up this great big brass ship's ventilator stack and I went and got me some sandpaper here and started the polishing process.

How about that for a custom high speed front brake ventilator! How many guys got these?
I found the crossmember at a Boneyard for a hundred twenty five bucks Peterbilt wanted $700 for that crossmember it's three pieces. The frame rails I had bent custom made brand new stuff. That's 40 21/32 holes I had to drill

BAM. Now I'm 36 ft. That's a good piece of work for two guys to get done in 2 days. Now I can begin to frame and build out the lower bays and compartments.
How about this chassis for a 6 by 4 motorhome.

I pulled the body off of it and am installing a 5th wheel. It will be pulling a 50 Ton detachable double drop lowboy.
