This is a series of videos I shot of Andy learning to drive his truck, a 1942 Ward LaFrance seies 2 wrecker with a 502 ci Continental 22r engine. First shot in January of this year and the rest was this past weekend. His shifting improved over time., along with using the air brakes. Whenever I was in the cab with him he would short himself on the clutch and he would catch a gear, but by himself he is very good. Check out the grin on his face.

I belive he could operate John M's new toy with no issues.
