Late reply but yes. I live 20 minutes away and work about a mile from them. They have a HUGE '56 Jimmy with V8, another with a six, '56 half-ton shortbed,, two '57 half-ton longbeds, a '58 3/4 ton panel, and a '59 3/4 ton stepside. Tons of AD trucks, mostly really big girls. Some later trucks but not much. Again, mostly the heavy haulers. Fun place to explore (winter is best because there's less growth and NO spiders).
265 V8... Not too fast, but a bunch of fun.
