I sure hope so, Lee. I'm planning on driving my T with my wife following me with several parts that I might be able to unload to some guys that are building a T. Parts like split wish bones, grill shells, front disc brakes, leaf springs, shocks and assorted stuff. There are many other smaller parts also. I'm not going to build another ride so perhaps I can help someone else in their parts hunt. I don't really want the hassle of trying to ship this stuff so maybe I can get rid of it there.

Someone needs to start the ball rolling to get one in your area......There is info on the website www.nationaltbucketalliance.com that help you get started. Some of the officers of the NTBA will be glad to answer questions......We really need someone on the ground in that area to start.......Go for it you might be surprised who all might show up........The Fun Run in Ocala FL in April will have a great turnout....

Hmmm...I guess you are right on that one. When you say " we really need someone on the ground", It leaves me wondering what kind of time I would need to commit to be that guy. I have some thoughts on locations in the area. The big one that slaps me in the face is Summit Racing in Ohio. They have a big parking lot and do things like this often. Also, I'm sure that Pittsburgh has some places, but I'm not sure I'd want a bunch of buckets driving around there with the frequency of traffic accidents that already occur.

I can put you in touch with some folks that have put a Fun Run on in the past 12 months if you would like to talk to them about what they had to do....You will be best served to attend one that may be close to you and see it first hand so to speak......They are a lot of Fun but they do require some leg work......The Nationals too be held in June this year in Carson City NV would be a great place to start.......We also have one set up in Green Bay in July 2017............
