Texas truck

i brought my uncle's 51 F-1 from Texas to California in the early 1970s and just started driving her again. I posted more info in my profile about the linage of this great old truck with 40,000 original miles and in excellent original condition.

I've been lurking for about a month and have learned a lot of good stuff about the truck on this site. A wonderful group of people sharing their knuckle busting information!
