I saw this truck outside the supermarket this morning and had to pinch myself that it is mine.
 
Road trip!!!
 
To Twisp!!!!
 
Not all old Ladies are ugly/useless. LOL
She could haul a cord of green wood anywhere and started at the turn of the key and push of the starter peddle.
Winter or spring and in any conditions.
 
I guess it depends on your likes in Autos.
 
After I win the lottery,After I get a 52 pickup,I'd love a T Bucket or an early chop topped Moonshine runner type Vehicle.
from what I read,original chop tops were to reduce weight so they could carry more shine and run faster-less wind resistance using the big 8's at the time.
 
These Shine runners were the start for Stock car and modified racing as we see it now.
 
I love pre 80's cars/mostly trucks.
 
Had a Shelby Cobra Fastback at one time.Screwed up-a guy made me an offer I couldn't refuse.
 
I just like older body styles etc.
New stuff ,to me Looks ugly.Have no heart.
 
Just my opinion,nothing more.
 
That's really cool, but I don't think it would look right with the blue.

There is an auto graphics place in town that I might have to visit to see what they can do to make mine more original.  There's lots of these around so I'd like mine to stand out somehow.
 
Saw that someone had liked a post in this thread yesterday.  Two years and 25K miles later I am still loving my truck.  It has a couple minor scratches from tree branches on the mirrors and a little scuff on the front bumper from the time I parked just a little to close to a fence, but overall after I wash it and clean up the inside windows etc it still looks new.  Its actually in for inspection oil change as I type this.  Other than new wipers pretty sure everything else will still be good.
