My '77 K-30 Puller is down for a rebuild, but it wouldn't be legal for any of those classes anyway. It will not be street legal after the rebuild.

I haven't pulled on that side of the creek in many moons. The last pull that I went to in IL was at Pinkneyville back in the 90's. Got 1st one year, and 2nd the next. A couple of years ago, I skipped out on a pull at "Pop-a-top" in Ellis Grove because of weather. Always enjoyed pulling on that side of the creek, many good people over there.

Problem is, there aren't many trucks from that area that I could compete with......Maybe when I get up and running again, I can exibition pull at some of these events to get some other guys to build "Pro-Street" trucks. I would love to pull locally, and not have to drive 3 hours one way every weekend.

I may drop in just to see if I run into any of the guys that I used to know that live in that area from when I was hauling steel coils from Granite City down to RedBud.

Thanks-
Engineer

- and do me a favor, please make sure your clevise is big enough for the hook...
