John's Old Truck: July 2013

Sunday, July 28, 2013

Stopped by the Sycamore cruise night in my hometown of Bethel, CT last night... The place was PACKED with all kinds of awesome machines! Caught up with Ed, another Bethel guy who owns this beautiful '48. I figure the Sycamore cruise will be the perfect first stop whenever we finally get John's Old Truck on the road...

Happy birthday to the guy whose help was the key factor in getting this truck running again! That's him below, leaning over the fender... You da man, Jim! Have a great one!

Frame Fixed!

A little trip to get the frame fixed, then back home... Thanks again, Steve!

The first phase of a lifelong dream became real on May 30, 2015, when I finally drove this truck for the first time. A single day that made it a great year. The next phase? Getting this dream ride in good enough shape for the epic cross country/Route 66 road trip I've been dreaming about since my teen years. Of course, this goal presents a financial challenge that I could never meet on my own. I would be eternally grateful if you would like to help the cause. The full short story - "John's Old Truck - Living the Dream and Honoring Mom" is available online for $2.99, at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Smashwords.

Please also visit the Tee Public store, where you'll find various images of the truck on shirts in multiple styles and colors, as well as mugs and other items.
