Know the history of your truck ?

[Trevor]

Just wondering if anybody else knows the whole history of their truck(s) ?

My truck has been like a member of the family since day one;
It was ordered by my Dad (from here in Alberta Spring of '71) and he timed it so he was in Ontario when it was being built (business trip).
So when it was ready he picked it up right at the plant (Oshawa), then drove it the 2000 miles home, changed the oil as soon as he got it home (same day),
he used it (170000 miles) but took meticulous care of it for the next 27 years until I bought it from him in 1998.

I took it all apart 15+ years ago and I'm finally now officially going to start the restoration 45 years to the day my old man took possession of it (June 8th/1971).

Anybody else have a cool story to tell ?
