Cat Mtn Mastiffs "Jello'' 59 chevy fleetside

I had this truck for about 10 yrs, then one thing led to another and decided to sell it about 3rys agoagainst my better judgment. Ever since then I had an empty feeling in my heart and in all ways wanted it back. One day at work I saw a cab on a frame and said "Dang that looks like my truck" and noticed the wildcat steel radial tires and knew it was mine. So I got in touch with the owner and told him the story of the truck and he was more than happy to strike up a deal in his favor. Its about impossible to get back something you love whens its gone, (marriage, family friends, and time). So Im dedecating this build to my first mastiff"Cat Mountain Chillin N D House " Jello. She was a part of my whole life, espcailly my wife and kids. She was taken from us by a neighbor that poisoned her. So only a specail truck will do to honor her. I might have trouble downloading pics so be patcient! its going to be tangerane pearl!
