Anniversary

or Birthday ....My Truck turned 28 today... it was built May 15th, 1978 arrived at the dealership on May 26th, I bought it May 29th 1978.

Normally, I Take it to the truck/car wash for a shower and do a complete detail job on it.
Buy some fresh gas and then drive to a local airport for a few gallons of Avgas to take the old girl out on the open road and let it romp and roll like an energetic filly with some High Octane fuel in her stomach.

I had too much to do today for her special day other than take her to the recycling center to get rid of the paper,cardboard,glass, plastic etc ( You Know Truck stuff )

Unfortunately couldn't do it last year.




Let me know when your truck has a birthday, I'll honk my Horn for you

Congrats Dennis. 28 years young! As for my toy, we almost share our 28th birthday.Mine is May 20th, and the truck has hers on on June 3rd. So she gets a new carb this year and maybe that final coat of paint. As for me, Brewer tickets and lots of beer!
