Post Longhorn in my DRIVEWAY!!!!!!!

Well, after many packs of smoke, way too many cans of dew, 870 miles or so, and the sighting of over 23 (!!!!) '67 - '72 trucks on the way there and backe, the C/30 Longhorn is in my driveway, and Jeff is crashed out in my recliner.
We have many pics and many things to say...but it is late, and I am sleepy as h*ll.
For those who are new and don't know, this board pulled together to replace my pride and joy after it got totaled in an accident. This is something that would have enver happened any time in the near future without quite a few ppl's help.

Thank you to every one who made this possable,(you know who you are)

Thank you to everyone who tried to help, (wanted to donate and to Crews and fine69 who both tried to help me get it).

Thank you to Randy (oldchev) and his wife, for waiting so long to help me get this truck.

Last, and most certianly not least, thank you Josh (blue) for creating this project, and Jeff (longhorn_jeff_69) for putting up with me and dragging my @ss and my truck home for me.

More to come later....MUCH MORE.

Need to pick up the one ton Longhorn with a PONTIAC 350/350soon.
Thanks every one!
