Re: Project "Black Betty" (bam-A-lam)

So, this past Saturday we drove up to David's place which is a little north of Knoxville, TN. I went to look over the truck with him & talk about a game plan. While I want to make a few cosmetic fixes, for the most part we'll be sticking to mechanical stuff. David asked me how long it had been since the truck last ran. I told him over 6 years. I was pleasantly surprised when he informed me that he hooked up the battery & it fired right up! After all that time sitting, I was definitely not expecting that to happen.

Here's a pic I took of Betty sitting in David's shop:
