Default Re: Truck based woody

Us Seattle natives were never much into the surf culture. The music was popular here though. Many Orcas Islanders are SoCal transplants and I had numerous offers of surf boards to haul in the parade. If I were gonna put something on the roof it would be an ancient wooden extension ladder or something else related to the trades. Before the surfers bought all the old used up woodies, they made a good cheap work vehicle.
