Very cool!

My first truck was a '54.

Any more of the '56?

That's really awesome!

Here are a few of mine. The truck was stashed there in a partially completed barn for a long time. It belonged to a distant family member, taken around '92 and was pulled out in 1997.

Nice. I had a 54 back in the 70s. Love the slant cab.
