    Greetings,
    Let me tell you how this all came to be.
    Born 1960.
    Came to Alaska in 1970.
    Met a KILLER woman('Phill-lee-Girl') in 1985.
    Married her in 1990.
    After 24 different cars and trucks,(1957-1990 models)She found she liked the "Big Rides".(read-8 foot hood's,long,wide body's,plush arrangements,electric everything.She equates weight to safety)
    She REALLY like's The 1983 and the 1985 Buick Riviera's we have now.
    But the roads in Alaska can be brutal.(8 months of ice heaves,4 months of HUGE pot-holes.)And i HATE electric diagnostics! I like handling, and simplistic rellilbility.
    (i wrench mechanical, not electrical.)
    But I'm the only driver in the house.
    Enter..........Compromise.
    1963 Chevy Pickup Fleetside
    Chopped,lowered,plushed,beefy,
    and the kind of handling and power only a man could understand.(think Cadillac meets Chrysler)
    Forward..........I build.
