Default Newell sighting

We saw this Newell while in Quartsie, AZ a week ago. I just have to wonder if when he was done with this paint job if he didn't think to himself "what was I thinking?"

after a couple of drinks you could have drove past them without seeing it.

Default 74' Newell Sighting

Today I took my ole' 74 over to have the Inverter System tweeked. Interestingly enough sat another 74' with the CAT Engine. The story is that the owner is selling it because he needed a TurboCharged rig.

Not sure what it will be selling for but it does need a bit of interior work...

The chassie & running gear looked good.

It also had two Newell Emblems I've been looking for. Maybe I should buy it for a spare....

Here is a photo... some of you may know the owner..

hi jimmy,

could you make a wax or someother type of casting of the emblems that you need off of it?

something you could then make into an aluminum casting mold.

Default I'll give it a Shot

I'll go to the craft store... maybe they'll have something I can use without borrowing the emblem..

Default Newell sighting in Muskogee OK yesterday..

Was doing some errands yesterday and seen a Black/Silver pulling a car and motorcycle. Was a very nice rig! I actually turned around so I could get a good look at it Had Texas plates....Anyone know who this might have been? Looked like a 1987/88 Model.
