# 2759 From John : My story starts back when I was five years old, playing with Tonka trucks in the dirt. Years later, I saw pictures of me playing with those trucks and I knew then that I was a truck guy. In 1995 I started my own lawn / landscape business called Home Turf Management LLC. I had that same work ethic as I did when I was in the seventh grade. I have been growing my business ever since. Moving forward to 2009, I now had a business making some money that allowed me to also have a little play money. At that point I started searching for old trucks. My dream was slowly coming to a reality. Finally in the middle of January 2009, in Michigan with lots of snow, I found a truck in Iowa. By looking at the picture, I knew that was the one. I called the person and drove 10 hours in the middle of the night, in a snow storm. I came back with my dream strapped to my trailer. After finally getting back to town, I started on it right a way. It ran great when I got it [ before picture ] . So I totally detailed and replaced or repaired everything necessary on the whole truck minus a paint job. I got it all done in three months. Since I'm a landscaper, I wanted a restored old truck, but with an old look which fits my business perfect.
