I know that. That's why I figure you'd let me have it so cheap!

I showed the owner of an auto museum pictures of your truck before you "messed it up" and he bothered the dickens out of me to have you contact him so he could offer $50,000 for it. I told home you wouldn't accept any amount of money because you loved it so much. I feel I did you wrong and am very sorry. I showed him how it looks now and he got so upset he about had a breakdown. I guess I did him wrong,too. Ain't I awful?

Fact is (seriously),while I have an appreciation for a factory stock example of an older GM and some others,I personally have never had enough discipline to leave one 100% stock. I have hot rod blood in my veins. If I had several trucks I think I could have one totally stock. I think

What I like is that his truck is "Stock" to the period. Yes, it's not exactly like it looked while it was sitting on the dealers lot, but there are other examples of that out there. In my opinion, its still museum worthy.... or better yet Drive it Worthy. Awesome that he made it look like he wanted it to look. I love it!
