I call my '56 a 50/50 truck. That's because it looks great going down the road at 50 mph or standing 50 feet away from it. Any closer than that and the warts start showing up. But I don't care. I'd rather have a truck I can drive than one I have to trailer to shows and watch like a hawk.

Last month I drove her on a 2139 mile round trip to Arizona. In September, it was a 1300 mile trip to Kansas City. In June we went 600 to El Reno. At the show in El Reno, we lowered the tailgate and used it to cut and serve TerryB's birthday cake.I'm having the time of my life.

I'm (slowly) rebuilding a '54 GMC. I'm afraid if I make it too pretty I'll be afraid to get it out. Why have it if you can't use it?
