Very clean I briefly had a '52 International 3/4 ton pu. Looked just like this - I had to install turn-signals (like these) and 'west-coast' mirrors as it was a farm vehicle. It had a very low 'granny gear', for pulling stumps out of the ground I always guessed. It was a truck when trucks were work trucks, not luxury/status symbols.

My 65 doesn't even have a mounting spot for backseat seat belts.

The front passenger seat belt is long enough for two people to use it.

Ashtrays in the armrests front and back.

One of these guys is hoping to be some lucky lady's Thunderbird.... (Not a clear pic through the window)
The ladies are to the left and far left, and could care less at all the feather flexing from the three stooges. Nothing new.

Hunting season coming up?

 

[PaleAngel_90]

Yes. At least the yard didn't turn into a turkey orgy like last year. At least not yet.

Upside? You get best pickings when you shoot one of them for Thanksgiving/holidays? I mean they're right there...

For some reason this made me laugh like I haven't laughed in weeks.


I am a silly man...

The phrase "turkey orgy" puts crazy images in my head.


Then thinking of turkeys sprawled out over his whole backyard put me in another fit of laughter.

Appropriately named “Fuzz Foot” judging from the dust bunnys on the Velcro pads.
Is that a sewing thimble?

My first car, '61 Chevy Impala, had no seat belts, I don't think my second, a '64 had them either, don't remember whether my '65 did or not. I still miss floor high beam switches.

I was going to ask the same question.

There is a fall season from Sept 1 into the first of the year, depending on the means of harvest.

Not really my thing anymore.

So TBird fellows; I'm thinking of keeping, Burgundyh Mist heavy relic from my friend

I probably won't get this Burgundy; I'm not getting a good deal in terms of money $.

But good news today; my 1951 Pbass project with 2 pups is in final stages

I just say stupid things. It comes naturally...

That's kind of what happened. I wanted to yell, "Hey, not in the font yard." But the funny part was all the cigarette smoking afterwards.

I don’t have any full shots, but here’s what I built from a ‘69 Telecaster neck:

Still need to do the ferrules. Has a pair of Lindy Frahlin split ‘51 pickups, modern Fender American Standard bridge, Wilkinson swamp ash body. Plays nice and isn’t too heavy.

It's not Thunderbird, but this is one fantastic bass.

No standing in the shadows!

Paul Chapman's BC Rich sounds awesome.
