That wonderful sound.

[garyd1961]

No I'm not talking about a custom exhaust but the sound you get when you thump on the hood of one of these old trucks. That sound alone is enough for me to own one, reminds me of growing up on the farm. I'm half deaf now but I can still recognize the sound of one of these hoods being thumped on or slammed shut across a crowded parking lot.
I don't gamble anymore but growing up I have played a many friendly games of cards on the hood of an old chevy truck. Also the hood has served as a table for many backwoods cookouts. The seatbelt made a dandy bottle opener too.
As I said it's a sound I grew up with and you may think I'm a little weird but every now and then as I walk past my old truck I'll give it a little slap on the hood just to hear it again.
