Thanks alot guys!!


I spoke with the owner of the truck last week and they may be forced to sell the truck sometime next year. I'd really hate to see them have to let it go after keeping it in the family since it was only a year old, and being their dad's truck, and their son's first car, and all the stories and memories tied to it. As much as I'd like to own it, there's no way I'd be able to afford to buy it from them to keep it close to home and make sure the truck is kept up like it should be. I'd hate to see it sold and somebody modify it from the way it is, or go somewhere far off and never see it again. After spending many thousands of hours and ~5 years (I'm 24 so that's 1/5 of my life!) working on restoring it, I've got kind of attached to it!
