On the Road Again

[IMG]This truck hasn't touched pavement in 19 years. With a little effort busted knuckles, sweat and some blood-and a lot of FTE help-she's back on the road again. Thanks for the help.

Thanks for all the kind words. Driving around in the old beast has been a blast. I know that I'm not finished with her but I'm already looking for my next project. I'm not sure that my marriage can withstand another clunker in the garage though!

seawulff,
Don't worry about it, the wifey is broken in now, the next one will be a piece of cake (at least that's what I keep telling myself)
