Re: My Daughters First Truck

It is great to see your daughter's happy face with that fender! So many young people these days only want some new foreign made junk..... It is very refreshing when young kids love the old classics... Thanks for sharing the pics.

Re: My Daughters First Truck

Thanks for all the comments, She was excited.

Got up this morning and Darrah wanted to drive again. Took her on the highway for the first time. Enjoy the video.

Re: My Daughters First Truck

Awesome David, looks like a lot of fun. I did notice no radio. A teenager with no radio in their truck is odd. JK Somtimes I turn mine off to hear the engine purring. I probably won't have a radio in mine either when it gets on the road.

I just watched the latest video. The girl rocks. I can't wait to sneak in behind her and hit the blue lights and siren. I know I'll take a beating but it will be worth every bruise.

Re: My Daughters First Truck

Just showed this tread to my 9 yr old daughter and 5 yr old son, They LOVED it!!
I think it's really cool what you're doing. Working on the truck together, bonding in a way that is really different. Working together while bonding makes it stronger. It's good to know that she is the future of America. We need more like her, and you too, for bringing her up in this fashion: a love of family and old trucks.

Re: My Daughters First Truck

We got to work on Darrah's truck tonight. Got the fender finished and ready to hang.

Put the fender and passenger door on, they lined up pretty good but need some more work. Enjoy the pics.
