A Local Truck

[weim55]

I've had an interest in a good original '48 - '53 AD truck for decades but I've never really come across a solid truck that I desire. My son who is a lineman for the power company in Denver knows this. He was doing some service work in a neighborhood in north Denver and spied a '50 3600 sitting on the side of a house in plain sight that looked like it had been there for some time. He was working in the owner's backyard and they struck up a conversation about the truck and other things. He mentioned it to me a couple of weeks later and of course I had to follow up on it. The two of us went back and knocked on the door to ask if he would let us take a look at the truck and if he might be interested in selling. Unbelievably he said yes! Told us the truck had been sitting in that exact same spot since 1982, he was getting older, health failing, and came to the conclusion he would never get around to getting it back on the road. Two hours later the exchange was made and I had the truck loaded on my trailer. as the old saying goes, you don't get if you don't ask........
