How Cool Is This!!
No idea the history, but when an 80 year old guy says he knows the story it gains some traction!!

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

That is an awesome find! That being said, it is not the most attractive looking design I've seen. A special build of 34 does trump the styling of it.Last edited by 53 Chevy5; 03-08-2023 at 06:24 PM.

Some extra work there where it cuts into the front portion of the rear fenders........pretty cool. My first thought was that color (though admittedly could be a repaint) looks more like the colors the Navy used back then rather than AF.Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
