An update:

One of my really good friends just rebuilt an old farm trailer in Virginia and needed to take it down to Florida. It was serendipitous and he offered to trailer my truck back down too.

Flew up to Virginia from Pensacola Thursday and had her loaded on the trailer that night.

Left Friday (yes I know, we were crazy leaving on Memorial Day weekend and from Hampton Roads to boot) and 17 hours later the truck was down in Florida near her new home.

We avoided most of the crazy traffic on the way down. It was nice catching up with an old friend.

Only semi-sacrilegious thing was the fact a Ford was towing a Chevy.... lol

More to follow on the restoration. Plan to begin in earnest in August.
