Just came naturally. Growing up spent a lot of time with my maternal grandparents. He had always been selfemployed trucking, farming, working on the water, buying and selling cars. The farm was filled with trucks and cars which my cousins and I played on and in. Made many trips in a 47 loadmaster Tractor without ever leaving the hedgerow.Would go with Grandfather on the water the smaller boats powered by 6 cylinder chevys, bigger ones by GM diesels 6-53's. When he decided to go back trucking in 73 with a detroit powered 69 freightliner then a 71 also detroit powered, I went also. My grandfather he thought best way to learn was by doing and starting early we grandkids were involved with repairs under supervision. Guess I was naturally inclinded to collect trucks. Got my first heavy truck driving job on my 20th birthday it will be 30 years and 4 million miles +/- next month, don't regret it. Chevrolets have been good to me and just enjoy the bigger stuff. After my grandfather passed I found the hood side pieces from his 38 in the attic they will eventually go on mine
