Re: How did you find your truck? Or did it find you?

My parents bought my truck in '77 and brought me home in it when I was born in '78. A few years later my dad stripped it down and wanted to rebuild it.

It sat from about 1980 until 2005, when my dad got cancer for the second time and passed away. That's when I decided to pull the truck out from under the pine trees where it had sat for most of my life and rebuild it.

First pics are from the day I pulled it out of the trees, blue primer pic is about a year later. I tried to rush and put it together to bring my daughter home in the truck when she was born but it wasn't quite ready.
