A mere 20 years since you’ve posted, glad you decided to visit us again, and didn’t rush things.

Nice truck, hope to see you in another 20 . . . 😆

What’s the story on the truck, and what’ve you been up to these past decades?

I would say welcome to FTE, but as ibuzzard pointed out you are not a newby.

That said, I second the request for more info about your '66. Oh, and more photo's too.
