It does our hearts good to see younger fellas take up the same passion us older (and may I say wiser) gents have enjoyed most our lives. I too started my affliction in my youth. Once hooked you'll play hell trying to stay away from it. Unlike most other additions this one, at least, your whole family can enjoy and take pride in. I for one tend to name each and every old truck I've ever had the pleasure to care take (I don't think we ever "own" them). My peers may agree here that each one seems to have it's own personality, quirks and habits. In time, I name each one based on it's character (currently: Rose, Rhino, Lil Bit & Girdy II). Their like having a mistress...only legit. Do any of you do the same thing or am I just an ole basket case?

You remind me of me, a lot at your age. You possess the only thing that is absolutely necessary to restore one of theses trucks, that is ambition and not being afraid to ask someone how to do something. The rest will come. I think we all admire your passion and ambition. Looking forward to watching as you proceed on your 50. Rite on Cody, keep on truckin!

So Cody this is brilliant; drinking alone in a hotel room toasting people you haven't met. Seriously, there is a certain clarity that can come with quiet moments and thoughts. This forum has been a grand resource, even for a grey hair like me. Glad you're along for the ride.

We have become a society where everything is disposable, we change cars every 3 years, cell phones every year, etc.
It brightens my day to see a few young men like you (and the ladies too) who believe in maintaining our past rather than smelting it down into some new trinket or other.
I support you 100%.
