Making the drive home to Oregon for the first time. The 235 engine loaded in the back. The truck now had a new gas tank, fuel pump, radiator, brake drums serviced, new kingpins, door seals, door latches, mechanisms, door handles and was barely running.
The side mirrors had been taken off and lost so the holes in the doors were covered with painter's tape and the rear window was covered in cardboard and tape to prevent any water damage. The tape had been on there for years and when I pulled it off it ripped the paint right off with it. I’m still kicking myself for that. Two of the original hubcaps were missing as well.
