But I remember my kids riding in it when they were very young . I have often thought of giving it to one of my two daughters but they really do not have a way to store it and take care of it. They just are not truck people although one likes it alot. I guess this makes me realize I need to have a conversation about this because sentimental value counts for more than money. But I also have grandchildren, and that opens up other things to consider. I hope that you find your truck in your driveway one day. At least you have fond memories of your grandfather, and that counts for a lot.
Darn nice looking truck!
