denny,
sorry i just now saw your post. been battling the flu for a couple of days.
martha and the 51 is a picture of my dad' mom sitting in his dad's pickup. it was taken on the farm that my parents still own. unfortunately it was invovled in a near head-on collision and destroyed.
i'll put some more pics of the 41 gmc in the album.
can't say that i have ever seen your buddy's truck, but that is a nice one!
thanks again for the info on the valves.
