"Firstride at church

Was contacted by Bob McKee of McKee Car Care Products to display the truck inside the church for Mother's Day . A little tight entering & exiting . In appreciation of the efforts he gave me a full wash bucket full of products , took me to his warehouse after to dry it off (it received some moisture taking it out) , removed his caddy suv & huge motor coach from the warehouse blew it off w/ his patented turbo car dryer & gave me the dryer when we were done . It was a good day . Plenty of interest in the truck . The photo shoot for Vintage








Truck mag has been postponed til it quits raining here .

I put more miles than that on mine in a couple months, being on a cover of anything is the least of my worries. I prefer the thumbs up and waves you get when you drive them. Besides my chest isn't inflated enough to carry all those badges...lol

Don't look at or read the Sept / Oct issue of Vintage Truck magazine . It will be on the cover & all over inside . .If driving a truck to get admiration & looks I can drive "Art" . Only 771 mi. on it in just over a yr. & has never been been on or in a trailer . .
