LAST FALL I DESCOVERED THE THE OLD TRALIER HAD BEEN LEAKING THROW THE ROOF FOR YEARS ALOT OF THE WOOD WAS ROTED AND I JUST ABOUT DECIDES TO TEAR IT APART AND JUST USE THE FRANE TO MAKE A CAR TRALIER. IT STILL LOOKED GOOD ON THE INSIDE SO WE DECIDES TO MAKE IT A EMERINGCE HOUSING. I MOVES IT UP BEHIND THE HOUSE AND PUT A TART OVER IT. I DONT THINK IT WILL EVER GOE ON THE ROAD AGEN BUT ITS GOOD FOR VISITING KIDS....

old mack truck

i though i should explain why the titek popmack... about 4 years ago i was thinking what i was going to do when i retired i always wanted to restore something but cars never interested me so i thought i would try a old truck. i looked around and found this nice looking old mack ( 1960) in northbend wa. i paid 900.00 for it and brought it home ( i sold the box for 1200.00 ) mom would not let me do much on it until i retires so i just found parts and waited. i started working on it when i retired and have done alot of work so far. it seems that everthing was mack after that and when i started the blog i just sead popmack. mom dont like the name so some day i might have to change it if i can figure it out ill put in some pitchers.

GETTING STARTED

WELL I GESS ITS TIME FOR THE OLD MAN TO START A BLOGGGG--- YOU WILL ALL GET A KICK OUT OF MY SPELLING I REALY INJOY LOOKING AT ALL YOUR BLOGS ILL LET MOM ADD SOME TO THIS LOVE DAD
