Looks good, I am glad he is able to see it and enjoy it also, I didnt get my dads truck until he passed. but he was still using it up until that day. Enjoy and cherish the truck.

Yes, they both are. As soon as I drove it out to my parents' house the first thing my dad asked is if he could take my mom for a drive in it. It was a really special moment.

Thank you. I feel like I rescued a piece of my childhood. I have photos of me as a 3 year old kid with that truck. I need to get them scanned and uploaded on here.

Looks good. I bet Dads eyes lit up when he saw it.

Awesome, bet that was an unreal experience driving it for the first time after all the hard work.
Enjoy it buddy!!

BTW, a can of "argent silver" goes a long way on those wheels.
