Welcome Firepower!

So you're the feller that grabbed that beauty from the garage in Belgium. Good catch.

Still doing a bit of work on the sister to your truck - a black '49 from a far less rusty place than our state. My hope is that when I'm back on the road in 2012, Bob will get us cruising somewhere together.

Happy motoring.

Nope, didn't get a chance to see it - you were too fast on the draw. I'm in Cedarburg. You?

Joe, that truck is great. What really makes it cool is using your dad's bumper and push guards! I love the connection to your family history.

Just think of the memories your kids will have some day. I know the thought of my kids having memories of our truck is a great incentive for me.
