  1. Here's one not to far from me. I think it's a 34 Chevy 5 window converted to cabriolet. Top Irons and everything.

    here is one sitting and dying. It is no good around here without a title, what are you supposed to do, build it and drive it without being able to title it?

    You need to find yourself a bean that is resistant to soybean cyst nematodes. By planting a non susceptible varitety for several years you may draw down the numbers to accepatble levels. Your favorite seed company more than likely have several varieties in the proper maturity for your area.:D

    Draggin Ass, where is the junkyard at? I may be up for a junk tour, I have a generator and a sawzall that is aching to get used.......

    Hey, I know where Ottawa is :) I might be up for a junkyard tour too.................'specially if Plowboy has a generator to bring along! I'm used to busting ass and doing all that shit manually in the 'yard.

    Besides, then maybe I could pick up those wheels I bought from Draggin.................................

    When and where?

    That was a great read, fake or not.

    Theres a truck up the road from my house that is probably unsaveable, but I want to plant it in my yard with flowers around it and "daisy pusher" painted on the door. My wife doesn't like the idea much.

    Next weekend it looks like I'll be in the Chicago area and maybe, maybe, in Wisconsin.

    Maybe plans will change and we can make a day of this. Heck, get them to open the yard special for us on Sunday :D
