Picked up the old flareside & was immediately impressed by the high torque cam. Pulls really strong up a steep hill in high gear. New clutch is very nice also. :)

Clearly you need to live long enough so he learns to stop being a turd.

I hope to have a few more years to prep my stuff. My son is four and my daughter two. They can figure out which one gets all of my various vehicles and guns...

I bought the current truck with plans on working on it with my son, and giving it to him in a few years. He's a great kid that's always been there to help Dad and deserves something for all that hard work over the years.

i may not be having kids, but i do feel honored to be chosen by my sister and her husband to be the TOD on there 1950 F1 show truck. they asked me if i could, in the event they both happen to pass suddenly that i take there truck. keep it in good shape and pass it down to there little son jacob when he gets 18. only if jacob shows an interest in classics and if i feel he will appreciate it enough to keep the truck in great shape.

i mean wow :D thats an honor :thup: an honor that they trust me enough to follow through with there wishes.
