Here on the upper Left Coast also call it scaffolding. And my rack isn't scaffolding or staging. It's two pieces of black pipe 54" on the outside to fit the Ford 54" wide bed with a 2x2 angle fitted and welded in between and various steel pipe and strap like from power pole cross arm braces that I had under my bench . etc etc. No issue either way... I hauled a bunch of lumber on it today and it stayed upright. Still didn't get a video.....

I noticed you appear to be posting the same video link over and over.
It's a video of a truck driving on a country road.

If you're wondering why it doesn't display in fordbarn as a little video window, i don't think fordbarn allows that for some reason.

I think the 5 points in your signature apply very well in this post... I see the video on 'garymtpickett'and it is up. I'm just gonna go upstairs and read my book about the battle of Britain..... so much less stressful.... sheesh

Gary, all the videos turned out great on the Barn "viewing" end! Looks like it was a beautiful day on the Island and that "Tarnation" really moves down the road!!

Thanks for posting!.

I love this thread and this truck . . . am a big fan of diesel engines. Now I must confess, I have a modern Duramax in my Chevy Silverado and it is a beast of an engine. I tell all my gas pickup friends, one you have a great diesel pickup and tow anything of weight, you'll never buy a gas rig again. I can put my 20" trailer behind it and it will go uphill, downhill with ease - I almost forget there is a trailer behind me (which is not good!). I would love to take a ride in your old tonner - it looks like a real blast!

My son took various clips with plans to edit into one 'movie'. He says he may need to load an app on his phone to do this I'd like to have him make a driving the woodie video once he gets the hang of it.

Tell him to hold his phone sideways before starting. It'll show better on Youtube. I like that one your mate did with the tonner panel.
