Nice, but I must say that ALMOST has kept me out of the Dog's house at times, and saved me a lot of $$$ over the years. 

May your sails stay full, and your knots not slip. Unless a slip knot.

Re: 1960 Highboy
Not even close to being a highboy but still a cool truck.

Re: 1960 Highboy
Highboy is thrown a round a lot. I saw a guy on CL selling a 2wd 1/2 ton and calling it a highboy. Since then I have been calling my Subaru Legacy a highboy.

Re: 1960 Highboy
I agree, I like it alot. There is a local one around here (red too) and it is in mint shape. Don't see it much, but I sure take notice when it passes.
