About

My Uncle Don bought this truck back in the early '90s. He got it stuck up to the bottom og the cab, the tires were completly covered in mud. It just sunk in a underground spring and it was fully loaded with cut up wood. It took my dad's Stomper, my Uncle David's 1979 F250 4x4 "Blackie", and several chevys to pull him out while us kids got to use shovels and put wood under the front tires. It took a while since all four of his tires were bald. The following weekend he traded it to my dad after we got the '76 Mustang II.
My sister Lissa used to call the truck hers and she would park it at our gate while she went to high schol. I would try to drive that truck as much as possible. Every now and then I would be allowed to drive it down to where our driveway meets Hwy 180 to pick them up at the bus stop or they would pick me up.
I got the truck when Lissa made it into to Fresno State, she still isn't very happy about not having that truck. While she had been in high school and she was driving down to the bus stop a little too fast because she was late she drove the truck off out driveway and went through one orange tree and into another one.
