[@dapoppa2256]

Years age in Pennsylvania, I was off to the side of a dirt road trying to change a tire on a Blazer, I just did not have enough jack to do the job, there in the mud was an abandoned jack and tire iron, antique, but was able to use it under my jack to stabilize the foot of my jack enough to get it done. I tossed the jack in the back and cleaned it up only to find it was from a Model A Ford, some other driver who knows how long before was stuck in the exact place I was. I still have the tire iron...

I love how the dad asked the littlest boy to climb under the truck and pull the safety strap over the axle tube. That is how you teach responsibility, respect and work ethic. They were included and they felt the connection between them. Simple but very effective. My dad did it with me and my brother. Great video and I'm keeping up with the updates. Beautiful old truck!

Glad to see see that you are going to restore it. Best wishes in your effort. Just out of high school in 1951, I went to work for Mannerud-Huntington Fuel Co in Eugene, Oregon. While drivers had to put up with old clunkers, mostly pre-war, two 1949 or 1950 Chevrolet 5-window trucks sat in the garage--one blue and the other green. Finally, management took them to Portland and had them fitted with custom made beds to haul sawdust and wood chips. My turn finally came to drive the green one to haul sawdust from a lumber mill to the Eugene Power and Electric and to Weyerhaeuser. I thought I had arrived. So every time I see one of those trucks I think back to that period just before entering the army. Wayne Warner, Springfield, MO.

That brought back a lot of memories of old cars. I was born in 51. We had a family friend who always drove older vehicles. I remember my parents telling me they were coming over to show us their new car. I was probably 5 or 6 and their new car was a 1951 chevy. The engine compartment, the crank hole, everything in it looked just like your "new" truck. I'm glad you want to keep it original, I love looking at old equipment and look at the technology they used to make things happen. I'll be watching!

It was a Friday and just got paid for the week. Had a $125 in my pocket. Went by the filling station (Phillips 66) that an old man ran and sold old cars and trucks on the side. It was 3 blocks from my house, gave him $50 for it after some negotiations and drove it home. Mom and Dad wasn't to happy with me, but back then it was not big deal. Dad work at the Post Office.
