Okay, here are my summer and winter rides... Just kidding!

This is my '62 Dodge crew cab pick-up, a very good tool from my tool box. It's a very solid old work horse. The crew cab started life as a Air force tarmac support vehicle for the military (blue), it then served time as a volunteer fire fighting department rig (red), and before I got it it was retired from the Nebraska Forestry Service (white). I bought it at a government auction in Lincoln, NB. It has yet to turn over 100k, the doors shut like new, and it gets comments everywhere it goes... I love my old truck.

This is my old '71 Triumph chopper equipped with the T120R power house... :lol: Story on this one... I bought from my brothers friend, he in turn bought from the original owner... my Jr HS science teacher (Mr. Peterson). It seems that Mr. Peterson bought the bike new and then bought the "chopper kit" and proceeded to build what you see. It's my understanding that Mr. Peterson couldn't ride anymore due to a degenerative spine/bone condition... Now, I'm the caretaker.

Like ever body, I've always got one project toooooo many.

Clark
 
Hey Clark, Pete Peterson used to be an avid cyclist too. I sold him several bikes through the years. Lets see some more of the stable. LOL
 
I wonder whatever happened to Mr. Peterson and Mr. Mead (both science teachers in Jr. HS)... They were both hippies, seriously. Good thing the school district didn't have "pee test" back in the day, I think they'd both be fired! LOL!

Clark
 
The best part of the photos with the Triumph in the pick up is that Clark also has a nearly new Dodge 1 ton quad cab long bed that he didn't want to get dirty by putting a chopper in it. :lol: The new truck is about 4 years old right? Do you have more than 10k miles on it yet? :lol:


I kid because I care. Luv ya Bro!
 
you know I was going to suggest just that when Jen posted looking for a bike rack. I thought better of it though. Perhaps she can't reach the roof. I bet she could get plenty of offers to help though. :wink:

about ten years ago I bought this car from a gentleman who has since passed who was a great fan of old cars. he owned the local flooring and carpet store here in Lancaster and had a beautifully customized 1955 Buick. he found the car when a neighbour asked him if he wanted to sponsor them in the demolition derby that year at the local fair. when he saw the car he couldn't stand the idea of the car meeting such a fate so he bought it from them for $400.00 and they found something else. he then contacted my Dad who is known for being into Mopar stuff and asked if he was interested which he really wasn't so I jumped on it. I paid the guy $500.00 and drug it to my parents house where it has sat for about the same ten years mentioned. finally it has arrived here and the plan is to have it running this summer.
as soon as it was off the trailer the front tires went flat. I took a few more photos today. I forgot to latch the hood so it is ajar in the photos, sorry:(
here it is!
