The kid gets a new paper route which I get to tag along on since he only has a learners permit. May God have mercy on my clutch.

At least I got this on the dry run we just made.



There was a SC too but it was tucked in a bit and the owner was working in the yard. I'll wait for a better opportunity.

Looks like a good vehicle for the kiddo to run his new paper route in. I see a 'For Sale' sign....

I'm not sure I like the inlaid license plate, but the bumper with recessed lights is cool!

Looks like this truck has been nicely restored however the bumper looks proportionally dissimilar to the grill, lines and curves of the front end. To me the front bumper is a bit distracting from the rest of the truck. I think it would look much better with the stock bumper.

Call me a style purest but that's just me.

Here's the Dent I mentioned in post #20. I happened to be going into Wally-World when he pulled past. He parked a few rows away and I didn't have time to swing around closer.

It's been a good week for dent spotting! Just today, saw this in the Albertson's parking lot:



First spotted this Freewheeling Package (with slotted mags) a couple of weeks ago. Got a picture today:





Been admiring this 4x4 for a couple of years - finally got a picture (although not a great one):




I love this one - half a dent still doing more work than most other vehicles of the era:



Saving the best for last - I didn't notice this F250 was a Trailer Special until I was uploading the photo!

I would say you cannot take pictures of your own truck. But they are totally different. Is that the Highboy Bumpside by the country club?

Yeah, it was over by the Country Club - and the silver truck with the FreeWheeling stripes was right down the street about two blocks.
