This is the Hunters Custom 12. He did not want me to make it Pretty. He wanted a worker painted his choice of color. He took it home a few weeks ago and has been working very hard to get it like he wants it. He is not finished with it yet but is bringing it as is. I will not post any current pictures because he going to post his progress later. He has not posted anything yet because he did not want me too see what he is up to. I seen it for the first time when I arrived last night.

Very interesting things going on there. I'll be looking forward to seeing some more build information at some point.

 

 

Safe travels!

Safe travels @JPWH......that's a long haul from GA!

Wonder if they have an award for who travels the farthest to the show??

Not unusual to have one or two cross the pond. Such an award might need categories (by air, by motor vehicle)...

Just spotted by NORAD... over the Atlantic... Flight plan destination simply says "Big Show".

 

For this crowd, not only would such a contraption be possible- you wouldn't know which one built it!

Though it's only a 50 minute drive for me, in this rain it will seem like 5 hour. I do not envy anyone making a long trek. All loaded and ready to hit the road a 5:50 am tomorrow.

Lucky to have just arrived home. Tractor seemed content to stay on the trailer. Some rain but mostly sunny and moderate traffic. I was surprised to see active construction in two places--some contractors must be behind schedule.

  PA/NY line, just stopped at a Perkins for dinner. Pouring rain! 
  No I didn’t take pics while driving, my son was behind the wheel.
