I get guys who can't handle it. They're still stuck on the fast track to perfection mode and can't stand seeing all that potential not being taken advantage of. To me,it's the look of an old veteran. These trucks have been loved forever and to see one that's was obviously all cherried out many years ago,then aged from use is just wicked cool. It's not unusual for someone to own one of these trucks for a long long time and a truck like " ld Gold" has the look that just screams that vibe.
BTW: Kewl '64 wagon. Every truck guy should have one
