Here I hope is a link to a couple of pictures: https://i.imgur.com/Vuvfmwg.jpghttps://i.imgur.com/kUNiwgE.jpghttps://i.imgur.com/nL3rqey.jpgOf course, many things yet to do as you all know, but at least she's going up and down the road. My granddad's 58 that I learned to drive in was the inspiration for this restoration. I think he would first be shocked at how clean and pretty it is, because he was old school and looked at his pickup as a tool. I think after he thought about it a minute, he might be proud that I honored him in this way.
