Well folks I hit the big 60 today! It's been roughly 55 years since Dad first put me on his lap and let me steer his brand new 1955 C3PW Dodge Power Wagon down the road in Moab, Utah, (long before seatbelt laws). He would place his huge hand on my little one and taught me to shift. As time progressed and my legs and arms grew a little longer I started driving it. Dad is now pushing 96 and we still talk about it. Been a hoot getting here and looking forward to a whole lot more. One of these days I'll get mine finished and back on the road. Currently it's freezing it's differential off in the hanger. Thanks for the camaraderie on this Forum, I have learned and benefited from so many! BTW I now qualify for a free lifetime hunting trapping,and fishing license up here!
