Five years intermission

Wow. It's been five years since since my last blog post.  The truck has made no progress.  I have spent this time focusing on more important things.  How many people stop mid-project because lack of funds or time,  then never get back to it.  The fact that this is a family truck has kept it in play for me.  For these last five years when I could not afford the time or money that the truck needs,  I've never felt that getting rid of it was an option.  I am determined to finish this truck in a way it can be driven and enjoyed for a few more decades.  My son is seven now.  I think he will always remember when his dad brought the truck back to life.  Which is important to me.  What makes this truck so valuable to me is the memories I have in it with my father and grandfather.  It's time to get it back to burning gas and building memories.
