Welcome Larry... you lucky SKUNK! My dream truck is my '59 stepside and I'm SO very far from enjoying what you already have! ha! I can't wait to get to that point though.
I just told my wife what I typed... she laughed and said "I bet he didn't pay no $850 for it... " then chuckled.
I told her you didn't say and I ain't asking!
I don't wanna get sick!
We're from Palestine! Thanks for the pics, friend! :o)#)
