I was speeding. (about 70 in a 45) A car pulled out in front of me, so I put it sideways to avoid the car. The guy kept coming over on me and I ran out of road and hit an oak tree at about 55 mph. Long story short, I got 18 stitches, swollen joints and did not walk for almost 2 months. I eventually walked with a walker and did not sneeze for 5 months.

LESSON LEARNED.

Very sorry to hear about your grandfather.

or... I happen to know of a 53 studebaker truck, just the cab and bed, but has most of the interior that fits perfectly on an s-10/sonoma chassis, and oh! there's a whole driveline that just had all the kinks worked out! lol
