I wish I knew how to post a link but I don’t. Today on YouTube I saw a touching short “movie” called OVER THE HILL . It’s about a young man dealing with the pending demise of his first pickup truck. The 10 minute (approx) short is shot mostly in a salvage yard. There is a Stovebolt in one of the scenes, that’s my ticket here. Someone smarter than me should find that piece and post a link.

I’m working from a cell phone which is a bit more challenging. I was able to perform that simple function easily when I still had a full keyboard. Someone else should post that link, I think the short feature would be well received.
Easy on a phone using Full Editor. 1) As described in Dan’s posted instructions, place cursor where you want the link. 2) Go to any website and touch the URL at top to select it. It should show a highlighted color, maybe blue or gray 3) Touch again to get the ‘Cut Copy Autofill’ box and touch on Copy 4) Go back to Stovebolt site and where you positioned cursor 5) Touch the screen to get the ‘Paste Select Select All’ popup and touch paste 6) At this point, You can go to bottom of your post and touch ‘Preview Reply’ and touch the link there to verify that it works.

It was a nice film, I really enjoyed the cinematography. Of course, I love to shoot old wrecks in the junkyards. One of my favorite outdoor photography genres.
Now I'm really confused... Am I the "Old" guy in the movie? I sure feel like the "Young " kid. " Hey Son... Come on back . Let's fix this thing..".

Will leave these here for the moment, to check and see if they need to be moved to a different thread, or just leave them here. Folks can watch and enjoy as the like.

The pickup evolution video was fascinating. Review points : - In my opinion the ‘35 nails it. The roof line made a strong statement. That statement was diluted in the more aerodynamic ‘37. - Unfortunate that the video showed the ‘54 with the grille painted body color , looked too Resto-mod. (not to mention the rims…)
