I trailered it home, put in new brakes, repacked the front wheel bearings. The original "three on the tree" shifter was a mess, so I put in a $60 Hurst shifter on the floor.

There was a ton of trash in the passenger compartment. I nearly filled the bed of the truck with empty whiskey bottles, cigarette packs, and other crap.

He had a slab of granite from an old toilet stall in the bed, which I kept in there for traction weight.

There was moss growing out of the rust holes in the front fenders, so washing the exterior was a waste of time. Baby Doll refused to ride in it.

You actually owned a truck that used to belong to Large Slob?


That's almost as cool as owning Jon Voight's Chrysler LeBaron (Seinfeld reference).
