New Truck
I just picked up a new truck, new to me anyway.

F250 4x4, Got it from a friend, it had not been driven in a couple of years and the owner before him had let it sit for about 10 years. It has a 429 engine, did have a 360 in it. Color is going to take awhile to get use to.

Congradulations on your new truck. Today must be the day for new trucks. I had a 74 Courier that same color, I didn't care for it at first, but it grew on me.

I like that color. Reminds me of what glow-in-the-dark looks like in the light! That gives me an idea...need to find someone that sells glow in the dark vehicle paint!!
