I have to agree with Swamp Yankee. It's not good enough for a truck to look old. What makes it really great is when it feels, sounds, and smells old. These old trucks will go down the road just fine, as long as you're not in a hurry. I used to carry all kinds of tools in mine, because I was paranoid it would give me trouble. After a couple years without ever once being stranded, I realized just how reliable this old stuff is. My old truck is worn out, and ready for a rebuild, yet it starts right up, and runs like a song every time. If everything else I own was as dependable as my '49, I'd be in great shape.
