    Thanks Dale that paint for your wrecker is a whole new learning experience as it has to misted on so lightly in so many coats it's taking time

    But the truck is starting to look toxic :ROFLMAO:

    I can’t blame you! That is similar to stories I’ve heard here. They pay you for driving only, sitting in the middle of nowhere is all on you.

    Hey Vince,
    Glad to see you! I got a HO scale Jimmy 6-71 3D print, from the Czech Republic, I was gonna ask you what was what on it, and what I needed, but left to my own demise, I guess you can tell me what I did wrong LOL.
    Sorry to hear of your theft problems, there is not much I hate more, than a thief!!

    Very sorry to read of this situation. I won't post my thoughts how how such people that do these things to others should be handled.

    Well I'm the wild west days they would be hung like a horse thief

    My version hang them from their ankles before castration then leave them there for the vultures to pick clean one bite at a time
