Thanks for the suggestions. I think he just doesn't want to talk. I went through the whole story with his wife, emphasizing I had my own truck and was NOT trying to buy it. One day I will see him in the yard or out in the truck. I have a similar story about my granddad except his 58 got away, so I'm re-creating in his memory.
Got to test drive her today and all went well. I will have her home on Tuesday next week!
