I took some glamour shots of the ragged ol' truck. The weather has not allowed me to get it out lately. It has been sitting in the living room of the shop. I see a small amount of oil dripping out the rear of the pan. Humm? Maybe those new rear seals are not as good as expected??











And one of the first pictures when I went to look at it!


Regards,
Chris and Cheryl
Chris, the 'as found' shot gives me hope they are still out there. What a great find for you and a lot of fun for us, meeting you and your family while watching the progress. Well done!
