That is awesome Denny! Well deserved! It's about time they feature a Ford and yours is a great one to use.

Since you are an active member of FTE, it's like I know you even though we never met.... yet. So I can brag to my car/truck friends.

Thank you to all for your kind words. I like the 1902 Stude elec. truck in the mag. . A good friend of mine who also goes to many car shows as we has a 1902 FORD truck . The only one in the world . Henry only made 2 . The other was badged as a Cadillac when Leyland bought him out after he failed .. I've sent some pics of it to Vintage truck W/ his contact info . It really deserves to be in the mag . When we both attend a show we usually park together then 50 yrs. of tech & change are viewed . I know some one will write the editors of VT & try to pick the truck apart . Since the pics were taken the bumpers have been painted gloss black rather than the satin black , tail lights have been moved up to fill the hole in the rear stake pocket & not have the license plate hidden by the optional ( $35 ) rear bumper and the dispatch box cover has had the top portion above the trim painted body color . Have a few minor items to address . Load up thur aft . & try to get some sleep as I usually do not sleep very well the night before a major show. You can search AACA Winter Meet & get the daily event schedule . We are treating this show & weekend away as our 23 wedding anniversary celebration . The last 2 we went on a Moody Blues Music Cruise which was bad *** .This is way more economical !!
