I thought I'd be living in Boerne by now, but it looks like I'm a few years away still because, well, life. Happy new year to you and yours, Derek and family, and all of the VGG fans as well!

    It's rare to find an old truck or any old vehicle in that condition. I'm totally on board with preserving the paint and only rebuilding and replacing what's needed. In my mind, mostly original survivors are much more interesting than 100 point restorations.

Your wit and charm and vidja quality are the cat's meow! Sorry to hear from your face space page about all the lost content from the inferior quality digicals, dang!

    I always make sure the mechanics are sound and move to the interior where you spend all of your time...the outside comes last. Seems like a solid truck...I have a 1973 High Boy 4X4 with a 390 4 speed...one of my favorite trucks.

    There's nothing wrong with that truck. I'm fully in support of your decision to refresh it. I wish we could find nice old trucks like that where I live. Everything that old is always rusted out.

    If it was mine, I would concentrate on 2 areas: Spend some time underneath and replace bushings, seals, etc. Then when your confident there is no issues there, move to the interior a bit. Pull the seat, repair/replace wiring as needed, new floor mat, new seat or cover, general cleanup. Paint and exterior can wait, that is just cosmetic for the most part.

    Just have to say that your production quality is excellent. Loved the last sequence on the road at night with the song "Findaway" by Bo the Drifter playing. That should be the music video that he uses for this song. Keep up the great work.

    A guy had a 66 with a 300 straight 6 and that was my favorite ford truck of all time. love the twin I beam suspension. Also had a 74 with a 360, a 79 with a 400 and a 92 with a 300 6 cylinder. I personally prefer the body style of the 73 thru 79 fords, I would love to have that solid truck you are working on. That brings back a lot of memories

    Giving away my age here, but I remember that these trucks came with a “high output heater” option with a larger heater core. It was was a must have for us fellers here in Canada. Came with I nice chrome decal on the dash to let you know what you had. Probably not an option that people would go for on a Tennessee truck
