Just read his guide. Superb analysis!! It is almost ALWAYS the driver who makes the difference, NOT the machine!
Whatever became of Gary?

[1]LOL! Thank you Paul.
As I discovered in the Navy, BEER is the Universal solvent, NOT acid as the
Alchemists believed. The Romans had it right, “In vino , veritas!”

Doug’s last name is Nasset

His father, Earling President of the Chamber of Commerce, was a P-38 driver in
the Army Air Corps in WWII and though  I was a good guy even though I was
born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA NOT Pittsburgh ND.

His older brother, Brooks, and I are close friends and he runs a crane in the
Bakken.

Come up anytime. After I get all the PM???s done at the various
remote sites in preparation for the Winter  onslaught, I will have some free time!

AND upon further review  I see a fellow from Trinidad. You probably know Bob Leone who used to own the local Goodyear store.  I am a US Navy buddy who live in COS for 22 years. Yes, I am NOT a spring chicken but I’m still here! !

Hello Paul

My name is Lew Wickman.  I am an engineer for the FAA and while in Oklahoma at school I started
looking about to build an Austin Healey kit car with an LS motor. (Going
fast IS looking good!) 
I’m living in Syracuse NY now. BUT I lived in ND for 15 years. How  I got there is a story for at LEAST 2 cases of beer. But I digress
Just got off the phone with my friend Brooks who runs a crane in the Bakken. His brother Doug was actually working at Classic Roadsters for sometime running their shipping department until it got to smelling VERY bad so he left and sought employment elsewhere.
I contacted “Bob” in Saskatoon! LOL! Got his wife who was babbling something to the effect of,
“We’re out of business right now but…” I hung up before I burst out in laughter. More of the same foolishness that plagues most of these outfits.
They ALL seem to start under capitalized and expect you to finance their pipe dream. NOT!!
OK. Well I am still in pursuit but I’m quite discriminating in where my bucks go. Money talks bull walks.

I’ll be in touch.

Later

Lew
