Saying Good-By to a Trusted Ol Friend !
After 21 1/2 yrs.it was hard to watch it drive away.& Im Not Sure if I Drove Around in a Realy Cool Bus,to sing Country Music,,,,,,,,Or Sang C Music,so I could Drive Around in a Realy-Cool-Bus !

Wade,being from Canada was not use'ed to our Ozark Mtns. 100 Degree Summer with VERY-HIGH-HUMMIDITY,and was bareley hanging on that afternoon,getting ready to take it home.
( Now What's My Band&Crew Up Too? )
Now,did that banner say,The Bull Starts Here?
Or did it say The Bull Stops Here ???
(Naww,Starts Here Im Sure)
But not when it was the Last Time and on it's way Out,and going home to Wade's Haus in Canada !

Well,Out the Drive She Go's

After all the cool-stuff,I had to replace the muffelers & pipes.Soooooooo,what better time to order twin 4" crome stack's and hang em out the back,,,,,,,,,,YUP ! Way Too Cool.
It was quite a "Show Stopper" when JR & I would be checking the Oil ( SID,my drummer thought I should get a Clear Plexyglass Tail-Gate,and light it up at night ! )
One of our band member's would have 4-10 people waitnig to to see me check under the hood,before it's off to the next Show !What made me feel REALY-GOOD,Clayton(Very-Close-Friend)said what was most impressive,was all the Gates,Hose Clamp's were all lined up in a row,&thier was a lot of them.&Each screw-driver-slot was,in the same 12:00 position.(Sorry, I AM a Excrnitc!) But,im working on it !
All thoes Miles&Show's she Neaver Let Us Down
It took 6 weeks to clean every bit of oil&grime off,and then paint.Then the fun part,Putting on all the Speed-Chrome & Trim ! Here it was 3/4 done.Then the new twin chrome "Pipe's"
