I ran across this old handsome fellow out on the back roads of east Texas. I wish I had the funds to restore him.

Thank you Linda. A little bit of an HDR effect in Topaz.
Good find. Looks like you have a Jack Russell too.
Thank you my fellow Texan!

Our current one is Miss Daisy Mae. Usually just Daze. And we know about jumping too. They are amazing jumpers and too smart for their own good sometimes. That
pickup looks perfectly restorable. Perhaps somebody will.

That is a fifties model. I am unsure of the year, though. I pass an old truck every day while taking my passengers home. I'm going to have to drive out there and take some pictures of it. I think it is from the thirties.
This 5 window is in much better shape than many that have been restored and well worth the effort and expense. Not much difference from the 49 to 51 model.
Put some air in the tires, and slap on some paint, and Whala! Bob's your Uncle.

today , in most cases , you dont restore , fix it so it is drive able , dont paint , just keep the rust from getting worse .to many oldies are ruined by over restoration . its like photos , too many are over saturated .\, dont look natural anymore .
