found a new home yesterday. It had been sitting for over 20 years, probably had not been started on over 15. Neighbor a few miles from the farm had asked me about it several years back but I didn't hear anything else from him until a couple of weeks ago. It was a '67 Chevy, 6 cyl, 3 on the tree, swb stepside, body rough. He traded me a Woods mower with mounting brackets for a B and a B drawbar with little wear for it. He has already started to work on restoring it. ------------- Just an old country boy saved by the grace of God. |

Glad it went to a good home. Sounds like a very neat old truck. When he gets done do you think you can get us a pic? |

He is supposed to send me some pictures and wants me to stop by and see it when he gets done. ------------- Just an old country boy saved by the grace of God. |

A few pics of Dad's truck. The '68 fender (primer) was just added. Replaced the side mount spare tire fender. He said he poured some gas in the carb and it started up. ------------- Just an old country boy saved by the grace of God. |
