Good things come to those that wait.
I was out working on getting the pool ready for the summer when my neighbor Mr Flowers pulled into my driveway. He owns about 110 acres and has a bunch of horses. Lately my dog Buddy has been getting into trouble and I thought here we go again. He walks up "how you doing" and other small talk and I'm waiting for the bomb to go off. Out behind the old farm house that his grandpa had lived in is a 1967 short fleet that his grandpa bought new. (I showed it to Luv one time I think) I have been trying to buy it for the last 6 years but his uncle that lived in Ohio said no he was going to fix it up someday. Well the uncle told him just go ahead and get rid of the old truck as he probable would not get around to doing anything with it. He asked me if I was still interested in it to which I replied sure. He said it's yours, come and get it when you feel like it. He told me again that the title is lost and I told him I would pay the fees to apply for a lost one and he said he would do it Tuesday when he goes into town. Now this old truck was last plated in 1992 and has been setting for the entire time which hasn't helped it and grandpa had run it into something and bent the bumper and grill. The left bedside and tailgate is also bent. It is a 250 I-6 with a 3 on the tree and I think it has 71000 miles on it. I know pics, pics, pics, well you will have to wait until tomorrow when I go to get it. So for all you guys that have been teasing me about buying everything in sight I didn't buy this one It was give to me.
