Re: Where was your truck born??

Cool thread! My old girl was born in Atlanta, and spent most of her life as a farm truck in north west GA. She was half-arse built into a drag truck in the mid 90's before the drive train was pulled and she was retired to a field for years. Then I came along trying to give her the life she deserves.
