Great photos guys, Ed thanks for posting them. Congratulations Russ and your team for completing the FIRST EVER composite truck fabricated in Friends history. Now where have I seen those A frames before, they look familiar....

Yes, thank you, Ed. I know it isn't easy to post these with the limited internet access out there. I appreciate you taking the time.

Having worked on truck parts for just a few days it is amazing to me how Russ kept making parts for weeks knowing how each part was going to go together when final assembly came. What a great outcome! Having broken the ice now I am certain that the other trucks assembly will go much faster as Russ has shelves of parts he has made for 3 DIFFERENT kinds of trucks, and two of each kind.
Now is the part we need help on, raising funds to buy wheel and axle sets. If anyone can help participate, here is your way you can make a BIG DIFFERENCE!
