Hi Frank, its nice to have you here. Things will liven up some when this long winter is over, I think we're all feeling a little stir-crazy waiting to get on with our CCKW's !

Hoe gaat het? Welkom.
Where do you live in the Netherlands and where did your truck come from?
Met vriendelijke groeten,
Barry

I live just down Gouda. Where are you living? The truck comes from Spijkernisse. Are u Dutch?

Groet,

Frank

Thanks abn, but the GMC is already restored. It doesnt run and the brakes have to be done because it stands still for the last 10 years. If we have picked it up i will post a picture of it.

Beste Frank
No, I am not Dutch, I am actually Canadian. I just love your country and try to visit once a year if possible. I have many friends there now so visiting is lots of fun. I will be going again for a few days in July and then to Beltring with my friend from Broek op Langedijk. You are lucky to have so many vehicles in such close proximity. Have you joined KTR? Good luck with the CCKW.
Groet,
Barry
