Re: and it's gone.

Hotrod,,, still have 2 trucks and an El Camino in the driveway. I'm getting close to 'toothless' but not 'truckless' LOL. One of my favorite forums out there. I'm not going anywhere.

Shaun, will do buddy.... probably later in the day.

Re: and it's gone.

Bittersweet is right. I remember watching you and that truck on Pinks All Out...

Have enjoyed your ramblings with that rig on this forum as well.

Wow Marv. I hate to see your truck gone, but I'm happy for you, as I know that's what you've been wanting to see. I'll echo what Hotrod said; hope to see you hanging around in here still or the '60-'66 forum. Enjoy your extra time!
