 That jackleg must be my neighbor in his old neighborhood. Even though I live in an unincorporated section of our county with absolutely no noise ordinances, everytime I fire up a car for more than ten minutes (which is why I moved out here) the cops show up, rolling their eyes, " hey man, your neighbor called and....wow, can I check out the cars!!??" They usually end up drinking a soda and talking cars for a while, making a big show for Mr Sunshine. Hey BigDad !! I know where there is (at least up to last year, anyway) a 1956 Dodge cabover free for the taking in a field in Jackboro. A co-worker purchased some land and this thing was on it. It's an old oilfield truck, its problem being its location (off the paved road) and the rear is locked up. I have a photo around here someplace. Do you want me check into it? I'd be glad to pitch in and help....RICK

Yes Rick, I do .. I'd like to build a ramp truck if I could find something like that to start with

Rod shop hauler
Bud & Dewey Cook purchased this from Bortman to haul their SS/BA 65 in the late 70's. The Rod Shop logo was removed but the Dodge part left. Had the long back seat mounted long ways behind the driver so you rode sidways. It made my eyes cross and back hurt.
