Coincidence... My 47 came to me from LaPine. Seemed to be quite a car-culture in that neighborhood. ('Course, that was 20 years ago.)

Les Schwab has a large facility here, but their office is in Bend. The family recently sold the company.

Original facility started in Prineville, in 1952, IIRC...
"God's Country", the locals call it.

Welcome to Oregon.

I'm a X, CA too. I've been here 35 years and would never go back.

I'm not close to your area but, 37 miles above CA on I-5.

I haven't been to it but, there is suppose to be a very good swap meet in Bend, I think.

@Roger/Sacramento , I'm in Madras. Take hwy 26 to Madras hwy 97 jct, turn south on 97. I am the first driveway to the west. 15 or 20 antique cars out front. Can't miss it. Plenty of old Fords and Dodges etc.

I have the first swap meet space west of the big rest room at the Redmond swap meet. I always have my red pickup with camper on it in my space.

Roger,
Your link to photobucket wants me to create an account. I dont use it much any more. Was just looking for some pics of your 41 flatty. Post a couple if you get a chance. Hope the move was good.
Regards,
Chris
