See you at Magic Mart sometime. Sometimes have the old truck and sometimes a 56 Chevy Bel Air. We bring it to a show at a church in the Hickory Tree area, but do not usually come to other ET shows or the Elizabethton cruise-in. The old truck is very original (engine, trans, etc) so it does not travel distances very well. My wife and I attended ETSU, but that was about almost 50 years or so ago. If we had acreage and barns/sheds we would probably have many more old vehicles as well as many more dogs.

My wife went to the last year of Morristown High before the East-West split. Of course we are old antiques ourselves. Small world out there. She was a Payne and her Mom and Dad both retired after about 40 years with the phone company. She grew up on E 2nd North Street.


The old truck we have was a former phone company truck we purchased in Jefferson City that her Dad could have driven since it serviced the area before being given as a retirement gift. It is the main reason we are trying to keep it as sock original as possible.
