A long time ago in a place far far away I had a Chevy Venture - the loads were at time's award winning
with luck i'll find a pic or two .
But what I have here beat's any load I ever did A picture is worth a thousand words !!

Copper Head and CopperHeadAKA (same person)
I am back to my skill set from the 80's Painting & all that follows it
I removed myself from the trash company I worked for as of 2 years ago
I find scrap non the less

Venture was special but time to pass the torch
You know when I looked for this photo - I started seeing so many other memories of loads in all my past trucks
I know it's not stupid but I looked and wondered what is this insanity - I never quit on .
It's kinda like an old saying " A face only a mother could love "

So how did I do it ?
OK the pile had some steel piping with the roofing sheets so first I laid down the pipes
then went for the sheets and loose stuff Al went last
So did it scrape the road - well sure it did ...... Like once in a wile .
I sold off some sheets to some body who needed roofing material $55 about 300 pounds
the rest earned $179 the mix is around 1600 pounds
AL balanced out the value
Awesome load
Might have been the rear bumper you heard scraping
There ain't nothing wrong with an honest days work. Anyone who says otherwise is a fool.- Old Man
Now that's one way to kill a truck?! Nice load
~You have to start somewhere to get anywhere~
I should of rented a trailer .
As I was driving it I had this very uneasy feeling .
Once I got home I strapped the end and kinda pulled it up off the ground about 5 inches
using a ratchet strap
I used a tarp & put a florescent green flag at end
to keep the police happy .
The truck came back to life ( springs )
but I'll think twice next time & get a trailer
If you notice I sound fresh when I explain what i plan to do
After loading 2000 pounds I sound a little winded - Took about 2 hrs
