I worked on a summer job from college loading and unloading new Fords (including pickups) on and off rail cars (auto racks) in 1966. This was in the Strawberry Rail Yards of the L&N railroad, and just down the road from the Ford assembly plant in Louisville, KY. That truck looks as good or better than the brand new pickups I remember unloading every day. Seeing that truck brings back the new truck smell I experienced each day. Well done.
