Keeping the old girl going

There's just something about putting these old trucks to work and not in the crusher. While I appreciate the modern conveniences of the new stuff, it is only capable from the predecessors that built the culture of a working mans truck.
Unfortunately, today, trucks are hauling more groceries than rock and dirt. More soccer moms than heavy equipment. It has been quite rewarding to revive my 49 year old fire truck and use it regularly for what it was built for - work. And she's happy to do it all day long.
