    Got a call from my brother in law that a friend of his had a friend with several downed oak trees (red and pin). Power company had dropped them last year and the lady wanted them to go to good use. Got two loads yesterday and heading back tomorrow for the rest.

    Pictures often lie but I don't see and pin oak. One sure looks like white oak, which is even better.

    It's a 91, 302, E4OD trans, great old truck. Easy access to it all which is great. Power company sectioned most of it all in 18-20" chunks.
