I vote that this be used to encourage other members, like the one from Jonathan and later, Cory.

We have Cory's on the About page.  Are you suggesting we replace it?  Or???

Do we need a Truck Of The Month page?  Maybe Bullnose Forum/Truck Of The Month?

Thinking......

What about a new sticky "folder" under Bullnose Forum called Monthly Photo Contest?  Then each month of each year would get a new "folder" within that folder, and the month and year would be in the title.

I've created that approach and put 66gtk's truck's picture in just to see how it would work.  But, we really need to vote.  I'm taking this to a new thread.....

That is a nice looking Bull!

Thought about it hard...AT tires.... Yes.  Even then, must have the proper vintage lettering style which so few do these days.  Street tires on a RWD truck.... blackwalls out.  I even painted the inside of my tires black to avoid any peeking through from underneath (:

It's amazing what a bath, a set of wheels, and lighting can do. This is the "parts truck" as purchased vs. ready to drive.
