Saying goodbuy

I just sold my 56, so i am saying goodbuy. I havent been on much lately but i have loved this site. I am 83 now and it is a lot harder to treat my truck like she deserves.So many thanks to everybody for the help and entertainment.

,In case you wanted to know, i got my asking price of $50k.

Congrats on getting your price. I understand that when it's time- it's time. You can still come see us, you don't need to own a truck to come on site. Hope you do..

Bless you for helping to keep these pieces of automotive history alive and well. It is not a cheap or easy calling. Glad you got what you wanted for it. Some lucky persons for generations to come are going to be able to enjoy that ride because of your efforts. Best wishes for you. Mitch aka MercBlues
