Field find in Oklahoma
So I'm back in Oklahoma last week, visiting a friend of mine.
His cousin comes into his shop and says " Think I found ya an ole car while I was out hog huntin"
Shows us a pic (he took on his cell phone) 10 minutes later we're all in my truck drivin out to the middle of nowhere Oklahoma.(20 miles down a dirt road)
Gotta climb over 2 barbed wire fence's and hike about 1/2 mile in.
Lo and behold we come across this.
The best part--- we get a hold of the owner of the property and he didn't even know it was out there.
So we end up buyin it for almost nothing.
100% complete with very little rust out (maybe 2 days work)
Yep there is still good iron out there !!!!!!!!!!!!!When I get to where I was goin, I forgot why I went there>

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

I wanted to complain about this NZ slang business, but I see it was resolved before it mattered. LOL..
