After getting it home and inspecting it. It appears to be a 7' Baldor Grinder
Wow - in the picture it looks much smaller - like a 7" grinder!

Picked up a Raider Viewliner topper for the old GMC.
Had trouble finding a colour matched topper for a long box but I am happy with the black and don't think it looks out of place.
Topper is an exact match and fit for my truck.
My first buy from FBMP.

Nice score, Bill! I like the colour! Your truck doesn't look all that old. Mine's an '02 and just starting to get broken in!

Full box and extended cab - that's how to do it, brother!

My neighbor tells me that the carpet doesn't match the drapes.... Lol.
Truck only has 105000 km or 60000 miles on it. Drove a service truck for many years and this only got used during holidays or hauling.

I do have a new exhaust leak....

Picked up a pizza & Greek salad from Stavros and had lunch over at Mom's today. Then picked up a few groceries at Winn Dixie. On the way home stopped at a buddy's to show him the new Volvo. Then heading to my place saw these out front of one of the nearby beachfront condos. They've put stuff out front there before so I always look over when I go by.

New fabric for the chairs and I'm back in business.

The containers look just fine - no cracks or leaks.

Scored a Porta Bote on for free OfferUp last month. Currently letting the glue dry on the transom replacement and then it’s off to the water for testing!

Nice. I sold my dad's when his health was declining.
He had hung a little two stroke Merc off the back of his.

We stopped at 2 estate sales today. I walked away with 2 wooden pants hangers and 2 wooden coat hangers. Got 'em for $2.

I’ve got a 55lb thrust electric motor which should scoot it fine around our maintain lakes that are electric only just fine. I’m watching for a 5-6hp 2stroke motor for the other lakes and rivers I want to fish.

More free stuff.......wet suit hangers! Couple key fobs and some fin covers. These were sitting in a couple clear plastic drawers and caught my eye as I was driving by. I can really use these hangers for all my wet suits!

Just picked up a massaging zero gravity chair, almost no use, but "the dog chewed the power cord and we don't know how to fix it".

$1200 chair for $150, and I already had the replacement cord part sitting at home...
(representative picture, it's to late at night to take a real one)

I had one of those ZG chairs but without the massage feature. When I decided to get rid of it the guy that bought it from me drove about a hundred miles the day I posted the ad. He was stoked to get it for 5 bills. Definitely a cult item. Good score. I think you can still buy a neat little folding foot rest that bolts onto the bottom portion for a couple hundred bucks if you're tall.
