Adam, old cars and trucks can be a lot like girlfriends or wives, and it sounds to me like you are seriously thinking about getting married. Please let me give you some fatherly advice.
You are going to spend your life with her, so make your choice a good one! Son, I suggest you back off the tatted-out, toothless, STD laden crack addict that you have fallen for, and pursue the angel-faced honor student that teaches Sunday school at the church down the lane. She will be harder to win, but you will be a happier man. I promise.
