Re: Zane's Ride

Thank you, AT. I echo your feelings of gratitude to those who sacrifice so much for the rest of us to remain free. Zane, however, did not die serving in the military. He died from cancer. But losing a child, no matter how, is very painful. Thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers, and for your support for this project!

Re: Zane's Ride

Sometimes I wonder about myself.
Wherever I came up with that, I'm not sure.
You are obviously patriotic (ie. your signature)...but your love for Zane is scribed deeply between the lines here, and it's very touching.

Never enough thanks to our Vets......or enough respect.

I can't wait to see what all you and your "Team" do to this truck, but it's top of the line, so far.

Re: Zane's Ride

I am sooo sorry I have not posted in a while. My computer has been in the shop, and I am waiting to hear an update from the teachers on the project. Today was the start of school Christmas break, so I won't have any new pics til next year. In the meantime, I am going to look into local auto glass shops to see about a windshield. Merry Christmas, everyone.

Re: Zane's Ride

Please let us know if you can't pick up a windshield locally. I think your using the 62 cab are you not? The windshield changed in 64 to a new design.

I have an addiction that requires constant satisfaction. You have a cause that's easy to help with because of all the great members on this forum. Put the two together and you get great results. And, were not finished helping yet!

Re: Zane's Ride

I know, but their involvement started with you; you contacted me, which led me to start the build thread, and you have been instrumental in getting the word out about this project. You are proof that there are good people in the world! Thank you.

ZM, I wish I was in a better position to help you out in your memorial. I am active duty Navy and currently forward deployed so even internet is a high commodity. I should be returning home this year and if you are still lacking in anything I hope to be of help then. I wish you all the best of luck in your endevors and wish you a Happy New Year.

Re: Zane's Ride

So I went to the school today to check on progress. The auto repair instructor has mounted a gopro camera about 10ft high on a post in the shop, and is going to make a time-lapsed video of the disassembly of the engine. How cool is that? I should have the beginnnings of a wish list for engine parts soon! And I checked with a local auto glass company, and they can get a windshield for the truck. I am still waiting to hear if the will donate part or all of the cost. Keeping fingers crossed!.

Re: Zane's Ride

The GoPro is a great idea. Rotate the pole so we can see the truck and how much work has been done by the students?

Re: Zane's Ride

Unfortunately, the body and engine are in separate shops. However, I will talk to the teachers and see what can be done to get some video of the body work.

Re: Zane's Ride

Thanks for reposting the congressional record. Pretty cool. I know I have not posted recently. I have a video to post this weekend. The plan for sandblasting the frame fell through, so we are in contact with a local shop to do that for us. I am still waiting to hear from a local glass company too. I will post the video this Sunday. My husband helps me with that, but he is a truck driver, and will get back from Prudhoe Bay tomorrow night. Thanks for your patience! And I hope to hear soon about the

Nope... Doesn't work for me. It doesn't look like a complete link.

Good Luck!

Darn it! I was able to post it to the Zane's Ride facebook page. I think the file is too big for this forum, but please check it out on facebook. Thanks, guys and gals!

Dear Zane's Mom..
Hope all's well for you and yours.
It's just like all you Sourdoughs up there to down-play the treacherous that is life in the North Country.

For those of you that aren't dialed in on what it means to be a "Truck Driver" in Ak....The obvious would be to say....."ya.... We drive on bad roads covered in all 26 types of snow and who knows how many types of ice (black ice, blue ice, dry ice, crushed ice, pack ice, rotten ice and polar ice to name a few) for at least half the year....blah, blah, blah.....
But anyone who makes a living driving truck between Fairbanks and Deadhorse
has nerves of steel and probably other body parts of steel too.
I'd like to be around for story time when he's doing the tellin'.

You said it, AT. I hear harrowing tales after every trip: harrowing to me but not to my husband. He takes it all in stride.
