So I've been a member here for a little while now and I figured I should probably properly introduce myself, and my truck.
My name's Chris, I'm 22. I live in Delaware and I've been installing floors for a living for almost 3 years. I'm hopefully going to start going to school for automotive mechanics later in the year.
So onto my truck, Dorothy. I bought her from a plumber who had owned her the past five years. He had a work truck that he used during the week and only used her for the occasional hauling and weekend side jobs. She spent a long time sitting. Long enough for some bees to think she would make a good home.
Here she is sitting on the street corner before I bought her. At first I thought the clear coat had completely faded.
But much to my surprise, with a little water and elbow grease...
I still need to pick up a vent cover from a junk yard and replace the driver side leaf spring to fix the famous ranger lean...but that's about all that's left.
So here she is, clean and proud. Sitting in her new home in front of my house. I couldn't be happier with her.
