I know he is looking down smiling that somebody is taking good care of the old girl. Thank you.

There is a family reunion coming up in July and my Great Grandpas son will be there. he is the mechanic that did all the servicing of the truck and helped Grandpa Fred sell it when the time came, so I will try to get as much info on it as I can. I have the same pics that are posted on the board, with a couple of exceptions, and I will try to get them scanned and posted as soon as I can.

That's so cool! As said above, I'm sure everyone would love to have the "fresh off the showroom floor" pictures of their truck
