Howdy, Kelsey!
We've all been "newbies" at something at some time or other, so you are in good company.
Just watch out for John Milliman. He quite often comes 'round in the garage (like he owns it!) and, if he sees any of us doin' something he thinks we ought no be doin', well, him bein' a Marine, he'll just shout, "Drop and give me 20!"
Pay no attention, just go about yer business. If he persists, make signs actin' like you can't hear and speak, and he'll go 'way mutterin'.
Now, about that business of a junk Stovebolt! I've got an idee. See, it you were inclined to send me the '50, then you could keep the junker, and you would still be down to two trucks, if that's yer goal.
Seriously, you and your son are are lucky men. Hang onto what you want, put up the junker on the Swap Meet (especially, if it is a decent "parts" truck for door handles, glovebox cover, knobs and doo-dads, you'll have some new friends in no time.
Just watch out for the name "Rodney" wantin' to buy or sell you something. That hawnyock really got a bunch of folks all riled up the garage. 'Course, he don't come 'round here no more. Last I heard, he's in jail.
Most everybody else you meet here will be a good friend real soon. Just don't try discussin' religion or politics with your new friends. John don't stand for any of it.
By the way, where in heck are your pictures?
Uh,oh! Gotta go. Here comes Joker, nee Fred.
