OK, a brief history of my truck. My wifes grandfather bought this truck new in 1967. It was used on the family's farm to haul cows, cotton, kids, or anything else that needed to be hauled. Well my mother in law ended up with it and it was used around their place for several more years until the straight 6 finally gave up then it was parked in the shed. I rescued it a couple years ago and installed a 5.3 4l60 lowered it and have been driving it since then. Well back during Thanksgiving my father in law mentioned having the side planks that my mother in laws dad built for it back in 1967. So this weekend I drug them out and put them back on the truck. My mother in law was about in tears remembering packing cotton down in the bed to haul to the gin as a little girl.
