I respect everyone's right to bear arms and voice political views, these
subjects aren't oletrucks. Let's please stay with oletrucks. While I'm on
the soap box... If you want to 'high five' someone for a good deed you can
always click Send To Author. The beauty of this list is that no two of us
have the same truck and we're all I hope very proud of our efforts. Happy
motoring. Cosmo, '49 3100 w/'56 235(.30 over) and 848 head, '55 3sp+od, '57
3.90 rear, Fentons w/dual 40" glasspacks.
