Well we've had a rash of nice 50+ degrees days here, so yesterday my little brother and I went out to bring the '46 home.
The pasture was a thick soupy mess, but my trusty toy truck ('91 GMC JIMMY 4x4) pulled her right out of the pasture.
Unfortunately, my 19 year old little brother has spent more time playing video games than steering a big truck, and he put the truck in a bean field across the street from the pasture.
Now one might think that a bean feild wouldn't be nearly as soupy as a cow pasture full of cow poop and whizz.. and one who thought that would be dead wrong.
After about 2 hours of moving the '46 about a foot at a time, the Jimmy finally got stuck.
If it hadn't been for the '76 Dodge 1 ton power wagon 4WD that pulled BOTH trucks out of the mess, they'd still be sitting there today.
Sure, both my GM trucks have their pride hurt a bit after being rescued by a Dodge.. but having my big, beautiful '46 sitting here at home helps ease the pain!
Fuel tank and radiator flush is first on my weekend project list.. hopefully i'll get to try and turn her over by Sunday.
