Happy birthday to my wife

[alaska gasser]

Jackie and I are downsizing as the 2016 summer move is fast approaching. Last fall I sold my steel 1948 Thames body and Jackie and I decided her Anglia and my blue Thames have to go this summer. Awhile back, she mentioned she liked the looks of 30's pickups. So..........this weekend I contacted a gentleman that had one and a deal was struck......

Bye Bye Anglia



Hello handful of cash and a '38 Plymouth pickup.











One week early birthday present for Jackie last night. She was reallllly surprised and excited!

It is no gem (side glass held in with wood, 2x6 back bumper, etc.) and I will probably have to redo a lot of the prior improvements (narrow front end, lower a country mile,...++), but Jackie is happy and that is what counts!!! She is curious how swapping one vehicle for another fits into the downsizing plan though.
