The black flamed 53 was an awesome truck..subframed, BBC/TH350, 9" rearend...you could eat off it anywhere! but I hated it as much as I loved it.
I hate cleaning, and I always was watching it at cruises and shows...you know, too many chain-drive wallets, and purses. I hated being so worried. So it went down the road.

The blue "weathered" 54 was more fun to me. I drove it almost daily, except when there was salt on the road.
Subframed, 305/350, 10 bolt etc. But wasn't super low. It was a truck. We hauled motors/trannys, rearends etc with it.
But, no room for me, my wife and two kids as they got older.

Then the 48...MII, 350/350, S-10 rear....cool ol' truck

The gold 64 was a fun truck. It had satin paint, so I didn't worry much, plus air ride etc.

As you can tell...my tastes lean towards wide whitewalls

Plus I've had a few others, but no pics Plus a couple 67-72 drivers.
