[AT] Old  Cars & Trucks
When I was a  VERY young lad   my grampa and father   got a  2nd hand   
USArmy duce and an half  as   are  only  grain truck  I loved that old thing --the 
big wooden  steering wheel  and  OD paint inside the cab (it was barn red with 
a  green bed other wise)  when I got to drive it  I was  having a  big time  
as most  REALLY small kids would -- dad  had to  stopme  from  steering  side 
to side   (he was loading  hay onto it... ) 
 
We   "Gave" that truck away  for $50  when grampa   blew the motor  on  it.   
Dad then  built  up  a  48chevy tandem--- with  a motor from a  pontiac  - 
sold  that   
-   and then he got  the  48chevy my mothers dad had  baught new  ...  that 
was to be my truck--- alas  someone  poured  Sugar into  the engine oil  and  
that was   all  for that one... 
 
I have had a soft spot for   those   late 40's  trucks  ever since--- I like 
that  BIG ole'  smile'n   grill  and eyes  they have.
