Sorry I haven't been posting much lately, but the empty wallet has prevented me from getting anything done to talk about. Hoping that will soon change with the start of a new job this week.
I wanted to make sure to post today though, because as I was driving to the new job this morning I realized something... 32 years ago today I saw this truck for the very first time. The reason I can recall the date is a sad one, as anyone who has read the "Whole Story" post here understands - it was the day after Mom died.
As I have said before, this project is a labor of love devoted to her memory. The only thing I can't say for sure is when, but believe me when I tell you it WILL be finished and I WILL be like a kid on Christmas morning when I finally drive it for the first time. I rode in it many times when my brother had it back in the day, but I never did drive it - no doubt because he didn't trust his teenage brother!
Many heartfelt thanks to all for stopping by this page to take a look. If you know anyone who's into old trucks 'n stuff I hope you'll share!
Thank you again...

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...
