A story about a guy and his late brothers truck

Post by Trampus67 »

Hello all. Im not new to the site. I had an account about a year ago but some how I cant figure out how to log into it anymore, but im back none the less. I have my brothers truck '67 SWB custom cab. He was gunned down right in front of me back in '98. I finally have enough $ to complete our dream "His '67" I look forward to much frustration and joy while completing his truck for him. Thanks in advance for all the help and patients with my retarded questions and comments.
