Your truck looks really nice Mike. I bet you were smiling the whole time while racking up those 3,000 miles.

Thanks Mark. Yep I get a kick out of driving the old truck. I'm sure you know what I mean. I get a lot thumbs up just cruising.
Sometimes when I'm getting gas guys just come up and talk to me about it. It's nostalgic to some or just cool to others.
I did meet up with a bunch of guys recently on the Hot Rod Power tour when it rolled through OKC. That was pretty cool too.
No doubt I don't ever get tired of driving it.

We've had a really good year fishing, caught bass all over the state. Good times. The Camaros on hold until the new shop addition is complete. I have broken ground and bought structural steel for the building, but that's about as far as I've gotten. I'm working a pretty long hour schedule. Which doesn't leave much time for shop....

Re: 1969 Short Wide

Very nice! When my 40 Ford was still drive able, I used to do the same in parking lots. And 80% of the time some pos car would park inches from it. Some people!

Re: 1969 Short Wide

Good to see you out and enjoying it. Beautiful truck! You have every right to be proud of it. Also a very lucky truck! Too few of these trucks find awesome owners willing to devote the blood, sweat, and dollars, to bring them back.
