Hi Mel!
Thanks so much...
I can't say enough how much I appreciate all the help and support from you and everyone here. This really is a unique place, mostly because of the members. Though I never posted a lot, for many years I was here nearly every day reading. And I was always amazed by...
Thanks...
I'm just glad to see it go to someone who appreciates it. You've come to the best place there is, here, for help and advice... Learn to use the search feature, and don't be afraid to ask for help if you need it. You will be amazed (as I was) by the knowledge that you find here...
I just sold "Big Blue." I'm really a bit sad to see it go, but it was time for me to say goodbye... The good news is I think it has a long future ahead. I suggested that the new owner comes here for advice and lots of good reading.
Thanks again for a great 16 years with this truck...
It's still listed in Lehigh Valley I think. I just haven't updated it lately. (Was waiting for the snow to melt... Lol) Still for sale, but I had someone look at it yesterday who's really interested... Holding it for him for a few days. Hopefully that will work out. If not, I'll update my...
Sorry to say I don't get on here much anymore. For quite a few years I was here every day, and I learned so much from all of you!
Warden, I remember that discussion. I still have some Doug Nash parts and a manual laying around. I may be back again to sell off my stock of IDI parts. I have...

Did I meet you once getting a part for Mel???
Memory is the second thing to go, I can't remember what the first is...
It's not necessarily the best combination in my opinion, but I like it. Here is mine just after repainting about 6 years ago. This was the original paint scheme for it in 1986:
I have both R & L dually fenders off a 93 dually bed for sale. I don't know if they can be shipped so I prefer local pickup in the eastern PA area. Asking $75 a piece... Pictures below. They are black and clean up nice. A few scratches but otherwise just need paint. No cracks. I can...
A second to Icanfixall ;Sweet Mine was rebuilt as an IDI Turbo. Turbo flexplate (hard to find) and Turbo harmonic balancer, as well as all the internals. It was balanced as well. It runs great, shakes only a little at idle, and smooths out real nice at speed...
