I wasn't sure what best to do with these so I just put them here.
That's my old 80 Chevy LUV by the barn, I even drove it home to OK at least once, maybe twice
Found a few photos of my first Ranger, given to me because they "just wanted it gone". Still don't know if it was an 87 or 88, but I chipped and scrubbed and cleaned on that thing till I could stand any more, and then did it some more.
I bought the toolbox from a newspaper ad, and later built the lumber rack, it seems to me now it was drilled and bolted, used a portable cut-off saw from a job I was on then. Actually after I finished that job and got a lay-off I woke up maybe 3 or 4 AM and just hit the road, listening to some new CD's I had just bought for the new radio/CD player.
Went on to drive that thing from Nashville, to Hunstsville AL, more times than I could count, to Montgomery AL, near 300 miles just to discover the state warehouse my Federal Govt purchase was stored in was closed for the day, so I wound up getting a hotel and cruising the town, ol Hank never once popped up! :/
Also drove it to Georgia's Historical site at Andersonville, which was the longest and toughest trip I ever made in it, also the most useless :/
Also drove it to Lexington KY at least twice, and Indianapolis once.
But the first one, and the best one, was driving it home from Nashville, during Xmas and New Years 2003
