Hey John
If the truck is back? I'd luv to see some side shots of it.
I'm a big fan of those Aerodyne high rise sleepers. Around here (northern Ont.) there not so popular. All the logging guys like the flat tops. If ur Dads truck is the long nose? wouldn't it be the 379L ? Too bad it wasn't the 379X eh? LOL
