I started driving it at age 8 around the farm; sold out & left farm in '68, I found the truck in '77 w/ bad rod knock. Bought it cheap, gave to friend on cattle ranch in Carmel Valley,CA where it sat for 20+ yrs until he got it going w/ 54 Chevy 235. My brother in St Louis, MO bought it & drove it for 4 yrs before sending it to me in So Cal last year.
