Lightning's spotted at Oakville Plant!!!
Hi Buds!
I just got back from the Oakville, ONtario Plant. I snapped off a number of shots that I will post in 2 batches. My friend let me in the rear gate and I was able to walk around the storage yard!!!! Big thanks go to him for doing this!!!! ;-)
It was kind of exciting as the keys for each truck are actually in the ignition and the doors were not locked. I had heard that this was the case from him before. It was mighty tempting none the less. I did manage to get a good look inside a black one that was closest to me. The overhead console looks very nice and is situated just up and over the rearview mirror. I also noted that this truck that I looked in had a cassette/CD system just as our 99.5 Lightnings have. He let me take shots of the exterior of the trucks but not of the interior. I didn't want him to get into any trouble NOR did I want to overstay my welcome.
I now have to POST these pictures and want to do this immediately! Can someone direct me to where/how I can do this????

You need to scan them in and save them as a JPEG file and upload them to a site online. Do you have a homepage. You could post at www.zing.com I think.

If you cant get them on Zing or cant do it fast enough I can postem on my site in about 10 minutes. They will be raw but will give everyone a chance to gawk till you get em a permanent home. Send an email drbdkb@hotmail.com and I will be glad to help if I can.
Got my VIN yesterday. I confirmed that it is on a rail car that is already in Kansas City. Going to Transfer to Union Pacific railroad for last leg today and could be in Dallas by this time next week.

Put Cat Back system and K&N Filter on 302 but still want more….
