Scott Haha, thanks! I was able to see through your old windshield clearly as I scouted my fancy picture locations.  | | | | | Joined: Mar 2006 Posts: 114 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2006 Posts: 114 | Craig,
I really like the updated white paint added as accent color since your gallery pictures. It looks great!
I'll bet its nice to have it out on the road again with your spring weather. Here in Minnesota, I'll need to wait a couple of weeks before I get my truck out of storage.
Again, great looking truck.

No, I, uh, well, I know the concrete-filled aftermarket step-bumper was popular and everything, and I realize it was one-of-a-kind and had all kinds of "character" and stuff, but, it just, um, I HATED IT! Okay! I hated it. There, I said it. It was a heavy, rusty piece of crapola. I left it in the dumpster at the muffler shop when I had them torch the bolts off for me.  Anyway, thanks, guys. I know my truck's got a few issues, but it's cool that you went ahead and said nice things anyway. I appreciate it.  | | | | | Joined: Jun 2006 Posts: 80 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Jun 2006 Posts: 80 | Some of those look like calender pages! Nice pictures, did I spot a car seat in the middle of the bench with a little one? Looks like you were having fun. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 738 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 738 | That is not a beater! What a great lookin old truck. I like it a lot, the 63 is a very unique truck. I have a 61 and they are my favorites. The 60-63, with the wraparound window and all of the stuff. Anyways, that is a captivating beater.

Looks like you were having fun. Yeah, as a matter of fact, I did take my three-year-old with me. We really have fun hanging out together and messing with this old truck. Truth be told, he's the main reason I bought it. We were sitting there outside waiting for that train to come by, because he loves trains. That's why we took that picture. He also wanted a picture by the clock tower, because he heard the bell and thought that would be neat. I thought it was too far away to get a picture, but he was persistent, so we found a place that would work for that, and it turned out to be the best background. He also thought it was pretty cool to drive in that tunnel, and even though that picture didn't turn out that great, that's the one where he said, "I can't wait to get home and tell mom about the tunnel!" Good stuff! Anyway, thanks, guys! | | | | | Joined: Mar 2006 Posts: 76 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Mar 2006 Posts: 76 |
