It has a 38 Dodge frame, 48 mercury flathead with 2 deuces, all the gages are out of an abrahms tank, trick paint, catipillar black and yellow, willeys rear end, 4 speed fork tranny, 50 calibur ammo boxes for storage, miscellaneous lights and other c.r.a.p. stuff. Everything is pre 1950 .

[Troylee]

Buhahahahahahahah I only saw him once at a meeting... Honestly you don't look like it either shah no pun intended....

[VegasFish]

Raised by a gear head (two actually). Used to get quizzed on what was driving next to us on the highway. Divorced parents actually - construction and off-roading with one family, accounting, dog training, and hunting with the other.

[Narazbad]

Dog training?i might need to pick your brain on that one, ande.

[VegasFish]

As long as it's a big dog Chris . If it's an ankle biter, shoot it.

[Narazbad]

Getting my siberian pup tomorrow. Nine weeks.

[VegasFish]

Ah well, better hit up a cat website then. Just joking

[Narazbad]

Lol. What I know of them, that comparison might not be far off with their curiosity lol

[Troylee]

That's all I got now is a ankle biter a shihtzu actually and the best dog I have ever owned... Momma got rid of my lab because I couldn't control him he was a great dog but to rough with the little ones....:( he went to a awesome home the new owners send me pictures all the time he is so happy now living in duck creek Utah in the woods.... A lot better life than I could have gave him here in Vegas...

[VegasFish]

That's funny Lee. My construction worker, Vietnam Vet, gear head, off roading, welding, jerry rigging dad and all his like minded friends run around in their big trucks with their shihtzus.

She's a awesome dog needed zero training she was 11 months old when we rescued her from craigslist the owner just left her in the back yard she was all knotted up nasty looking just uhhh you can imagine... We bought her took her straight to the groomers brought her home and not had a single problem with her... No barking biting accidents etc...we have Had her for almost a year now... She is a very intelligent dog very very smart... She has a crooked eye and walks around with her lip pulled up like Elvis with her tongue half hanging out funniest thig ever.... She also talks to us if she wants water, food or if something like a bike is blocking the door and she can't come in it's really crazy but I have never had a dog that smart...

[tbone74]
