I am pretty sure that was you that I talked to toward the end of the show....Thanks for coming and sharing you have been watching the channel almost since the very beginning.
The Orange Picker looks fantastic, I'm glad to see you made it there and got to show it off after all that time and effort. I gotta admit, I was skeptical about ever seeing the lift working... Mike, you are The Master. -Burt in NJ
Yes it was! so much fun even to drive it. it just drives like a new truck. straight and smooth. Charlie wants to go up in the boom. When he gets back from Germany. Charlie and Erica may come out or meet up just to drive it and go up in the lift. he was so excited on the phone. also Kimball Rich saw it at RVA. Was totally blown away. He saw it before and was totally shocked. others there too. Just blown away. They want me to take it to Kelly park. I think I am going to do that. He thinks it will win the best of show. with some pictures and stuff.
What an amazing outcome this vehicle has had compared to when you brought it home. You should be very proud of yourself. Loved seeing all the other busses at the show and dreaming of having one of those. Thanks for taking us along.
My 67 has a OCTO sticker in front passenger window. Seeing this bus has been in Pittsburgh for at least 30 years, it's an OLD sticker. -- Thanks for the video.
Hi, Mike Great show,I think you did make the show with the best VW The Cherry picker. Glad you did make it safe, come safe Home again my friend.Greetings.as usua🇺🇸💠🤗👍🏻☮️💥🇳🇴🇳🇱l.Hubertus
You've got the old rig looking awesome all your hard work and long hours have really paid off. It is also definitely a one of a kind I have never seen another at any museum or car show well done
when charlie gets back he wants to take it up... But your height might make you top heavy easier to fall out of there. I am used to working on these things so it doesnt bother me at all. my other truck goes up 2 times that high.
Hey mike, it was nice seeing your single cab after following your progress on RU-vid! thats me at 35:47 giving a big thumbs up. The lift looks shaky lol I would poop my pants being up there!
Hey Mike ! None of the busses had what the 67 panel I had had . Fiberglass fender flairs and front flair kit . I am sure Bozo got them from J.C. Whitney . I saw some of the air intake flairs . The 67 had all of the junk on it .
there were more people when I first got there looking at it. some left early to the second show. By the time I went up in it there were a lot less people.
yea exactly. I would like to run more actual sound but too much music everywhere I walk. so I started using reverse in some cases just to have the actual sound there.
I was wondering if you have taken this to a public scale to weigh it with and with out the lift , a d compare it to the fly weight when you first got it ?
@@Mikefngarage how's it feel going down the road ? You said it was loosing speed on hills , how does it do on curves or speed bumps . Where these regularly driven on roads or just operated at industrial parks , airports etc.
