HOGIE Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 Yup Rick you made a large sacrifice to make all those trips down to work on the truck and okay you are appreciative. Because you say so and who else would know besides you. The way you choose to talk shit about the group who did so much to put the truck together, well appreciation doesn't really shine through. And yes it was a great moment when someone, from the community, who had just been pulled up on stage to be given a token of gratitude for there work and dedication to the build won the truck. You looked really happy Rick. My statement about not appreciating the gift is based on your actions since then. You should've just given the truck to Q But I think you guys missed the point of my last post and are focused on a side note. 1 Quote Link to comment

flatcat19 Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 Side note: The ticket Q gave rick was actually purchased by Mike. My lone ticket was also purchased by Mike. 2 numbers off. I don't recall how many tickets Mike bought, but every one of them was given away. 1 Quote Link to comment

flatcat19 Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 I think Q and I were actually standing next to each other as the numbers were called off. Quote Link to comment

I don't recall how many tickets Mike bought, but every one of them was given away. Well I couldn't be the winner, how would that look? Plus what would I do with it when heading back to Canada? The solution was to support the Can't Be Truck and give the tickets away. Hey, Matt knows where one went. Him and I and Achmed (forget his friend's name from Spokane is) went out for supper and his friend paid the tab at this Iranian or Iraqie diner so I gave him a ticket. Don't let Mike lie to you. He was already on the road away from Canby as that happened. Yeah I didn't really cry.... .... till maybe Wednesday when I finally got home. It was all good. Quote Link to comment
maltese Posted December 5, 2016 Report Share Posted December 5, 2016 It started off as a really cool story, bro Still a cool story, just less Hallmark, and more HBO. What this story needs is a little more Cinemax! VTR?? 4 Quote Link to comment

jrock4224 Posted December 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2016 Why in the actual fuck? You use a quote of mine...then imply perpetrator of mayhem? I have had nothing to do with this truck at all. I sure hope the insinuation was a slight meant for Al in part to him selling off good, donated parts. If you have not noticed Al had been pulled through the wringer many times in so many different threads. WTF?! I actually just made a fresh pot. Does it not read the same to others? RW's post seemed rather pointed in one direction...using one of my quotes, I think his sights are adjusted incorrectly. Just sayin'. no i read it as he was talking about Al....truck will always be a shit sow as long as I'm the caretaker ...if anything i wish the heater motor blew harder , fucking three of four wheels dont hold air on my temp wheels.... sigh better not ruin my new tires lol its a truck it will be used ..... merry x mas 7 Quote Link to comment

KoHeartsGPA Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 kinda feel like the new motor busta built that is sweet was broke in wrong.... its puffing a little smoke on accelerate between gears ... best part of the build I had this happen with a 75k original miles 1990 camry i bought for my gf, added a pint of marvel mystery oil (recommended by an engine builder) and did the trick, sometimes rings don't seat properly even if you do follow break in procedure to the letter, try that Jrock, won't hurt anything. 2 Quote Link to comment
