Since I got my great uncles 49 back on the road, it has been pretty much a daily driver and a Sunday cruiser. Today I really noticed just how many heads snap around or people stop what they are doing to take a look as I drive by. It sure is a great feeling. I'm sure others here have the exact same experiences.
Yeah~ I can't wait to be rolling down the road like back in my youth. People recognize "style", and these trucks have it, IMO. Keep on truckin!
We have a fast food/ice cream place here in Texas, and I presume elsewhere. In a lot of their stores there's a picture on the wall of an AD painted white, with the "DQ" logo and a bunch of spots on it. It's carrying a band for a weekend 'concert' in the parking lot. Really nostalgic picture. I'll be taking My Grandkids to our local Dairy Queen for Ice Cream in my truck Hopefully pretty soon as well.
Old Trucks Mark ; You've worked hard and now get to enjoy the reward . I bet that just like my old truck , folks always ask if it's for sale . Be *very* careful about saying " yeah , sure ~ for $15,000.00 " as every so often some damnfool will pull out a wad and expect you to actually sell it . .
This is great. It sure never gets old. I love that my son will wave and smile back. Great looking truck by the way Nate you say that about offers. I have gotten 3 since moving and now the truck sits outside. I tell them all yeah I will sell it for $16,000. But it would be best for you to look elsewhere because that's not a good deal
