First Ride

Finally took my 65 for its first drive today.....it has been 7 years in the making so it REALLY felt good. I am very pleased the way it turned out, the way it drives and handles...engine runs/sounds good too! Just need to finish the interior....hopefully in Feb sometime. Hope the pic post...still learning how to do this...

Nice Truck! I've had mine for 8 years, and it looks nothing like that!
