Wayne, I guess those of us whose pictures you have posted on your website
should not miss an opportunity once again say a big, hearty "THANK YOU"!
Many of us don't have websites yet, and it sure provides a way to display
our oletrucks.  I really appreciate all your work.

>>>The only problem now is how to atached the two halve house's to
eachother,

each,
