I was a carpenter in SoCal When I bought my 53 3100 in 1980. I drove my truck 2-3 hours a day for work for 9 years. I drove it from LA to northern Indiana and back 5 times. The last 5 years I lived in the desert. The truck was all completely stock. I'm over it. When I moved to Indiana in 1989 it was parked for 30 years. If I wasn't retromodding the truck it would still be parked, probably until it rotted in the ground like a lot of the trucks around here. To each his own. It's the journey. If I die before it's done the next guy has a good start.
