Kaye, I am still putting the final details together.I am in Southern New Jersey I do them here in my shop. I have put four
(4) together so far, It all started by accident. I did one for myself and as I was getting ready to paint it a friend of my
Fathers showed up with paint chip cards and sayed "It will be this color and I am leaving in three days" The other three were pretty much the same way,But in differant stages of the build. I still do not have one for myself.I am a young(50) retired Drilling Contractor.Photos are being put together and will be up as soon as possible. I use Heavy Duty Truck sleeper take-offs (no junk) and custom bodys using steel. I have not used a aluminum body yet.(personnel prefrence)
Everything is done here and nothing is subcontracted out. My location is unique due to the fact I am located within 20 miles of the factories of Viking,Ocean,Egg Harbor and Post Yachts. So the help I do have here are very talented guys.
This whole thing just kind of happend. And it is a good thing because it keeps me out off trouble with the wife because she works for the state of NJ and cannot retire for 15 years. The local girls at the strip joints wern't to happy though.
And the local Harley dealer wasn't eiether. "To many toys not enough time" I have talked with Gary A. in California several times about them (just in generel) not about a purchase. Regards, Marc

P.S. I posted this just to see if there was intrest outside of my area. I have the chance to purchase six (6) trucks.
And to be honest I am a little concerend with this next step. I was in business thirty-five years and the drilling company was started by my Grandfather in 1925. And with sixty employes at one time it took its toll on me with the stress and bullsh** factors. So I want this to be fun and enjoyable this time around.


Also please note, There is not any glitz,glitter,flash or smoke & mirrors here just good old fashion honest stuff.
