It sure is nice to drive them and not just work on them all the time. I have had Low Buck on th eroad for just over a week and I have driven it about 500 miles so far and it has been just great. I have had my other truck (71 slow build) since 1999 and have not driven it since 2000. I have worked on alot of peoples 67-72's but have not had my own to drive in way to long. I drove it to the GoodGuys show today and I enjoyed the drive (85miles ea way) more than the show it self. I did spend a few $ on some new parts while I was their so now it wil be even more fun to drive

New head lights (H4's) with cool blue lights. New trim rings that all match! New weather stripping for the doors, new rear view miror that you can see out of (old one was all fogged over) and enough Dynamat for the entire cab, doors and misc.
