October 18, 2008 - Piedmont, MO
Ozark Heritage Fall Festival
This was the first parade with my halftrack. I was
extremely worried about how the halftrack would hold up for this. The
weekend before I took it out for a spin and afterward I looked at the tracks and
noticed two spots where the cables were frayed and sticking out. This was
about a 2.5 mile route and it took us about an hour and a half to complete it.
Besides the tracks I was worried that it might overheat, but the temperature
only got to 170 or 180. It seemed like a lot of people were taking
pictures and commenting about the halftrack. It was a fun time and I hope
to do it next year.

Completely originial Mustang with a sad story.
Shortly after the woman bought this she was found to have a brain tumor. Since then she has had a couple of strokes and is now confined to a wheel chair. Her father and brother put the car into storage and has only brought it out for car shows. |

It is amazing how much the new doors improve the use of the halftrack.

Added unit markings, but I need to add the Armor Delta

An originial gauge cluster I bought and installed. That greatly improves the look of the dash.
