Interesting, indeed. Glad to see it going where it will be taken care of properly and appreciated, not restored or "rodded." And by all means, welcome.

From someone who appreciated Sanford and Son

Wow that is great news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And in less than a week you joined FTE to tell us where it went!

I am absolutely thrilled it stayed in America because so many of the classic iron goes to collectors overseas, never to be seen again.
Now I'll have to convince the wife to take a vacation in Ohio to go see it in person and meet you guys and drool on the cars.

Hats off to both of you.
Tom

Congrats guys! I'm excited for you.
Welcome to FTE!
By reading this thread you already know we are a bunch of truck nuts that have a very wide set of opinions.
Be sure to take lots of pictures and post them here. Keep us informed of what you do with the truck.

I think this is better than a museum getting it. It will be great advertising for your business as well. Have fun with it.

Owned by two of the biggest Sanford and Son fans. We stayed at the shop till the end of the auction....cracked a bottle of ripple and built up some bidding courage! We hit the road bright and early after winning the auction and headed out to bring her home!

Check out our facebook page for some pics of our ROAD TRIP!
