GMC Trucks- Well Todays picture shows me washing my old 1996 GMC Truck. It sits out back in the shed most of the summer . This is only the fourth time I have pulled it out since winter was over. It gets dusty so i like to drive it around town once in a while and clean it up. It is still a good old truck. I still have the Fisher Snowplow for it too but it has seen very little snowplowing and it hasn’t plowed any snow for several years. I have two people who would love to buy it from me with the plow that is is very good condition too. But replacement cost for a new truck that probably isn’t as solid as this one is way to expensive. So this is probably my last truck I will ever buy. We do drive it in the winter around town but even limit that to days with no salt on the roads. Most of my friends have bought 3 or four new trucks since I bought this old family truckster. It is rare I even wash the truck at a car wash because i prefer hand washing .
Cat Dozer Painting Day- Today I am wet sanding the first parts and by tonight should get the first parts painted. If all goes well by this weekend all the parts should be painted.
Have a great Monday
