Thanks Skip for sharing.

It's strange when and how "things" come to us!

I gotta say that I'm with Mac on this one Skip. Like was said before, you write better than most paid authors and you should put those stories to paper for everyone to read. I'm always looking to see if you got another story to tell. I was about to tell you to get off the computer and go ride cause I hadn't seen a story from you in awhile.

Still working on the Sloptail. Had to send the hydraulic clutch back to the guy who built it for some changes. Just moved the oil filter from horizontal to vertical. Started running the stainless tubing for new oil lines. Reran the stainless tubing for the fuel line to clear the hand shift lever. Made my venturi/lollipop baffles for the exhaust. Getting ready to wrap the pipes with the cloth header wrap. New tires on the way.

Too much other stuff going on and too many health problems this winter. Sure will be glad when the ol' girl is done and the weather quits its liquid phase.
