Thank you John, it’s been a tough few weeks. Don’t want to be a downer, but felt the need to acknowledge my little pal.

Sorry to hear about your loss, I hope all your memories with him warms your heart and keep him with you in the future.

Been spending some time recently getting caught up on this board. I found your "in progress" build thread, and glad to have now found that it did get finished. Nice tribute to a great builder.

‘Hello Anton! Sorry for the VERY late reply here. I miss my little buddy, it’s been hard to get back to the hobby desk for a bunch of reasons, but not having Otis at my side is one of the biggest ones. I am finally ready to get back at it, I think you’ll enjoy my next build. Really appreciate your kind words, Otis’s memory lives on.

Hi Craig, and thank you. This was a very rewarding build for me. I hope you had minute to look through the build thread. so many of us here were inspired by Roger, he truly was a fantastic builder, and by all accounts, an even better person. Appreciate you taking the time to comment.

Cheers, Steve

The truck looks amazing Steve, I know Plowboy would be proud. He’s probably looking down smiling right now and thinking “yep,that’s just how I’d do it”

Sorry for your loss, our fur babies are like a family member and it definitely hurts when you lose them. 🥺
