    Beautiful ride! I am always glad to see the young guns stepping up and falling in love with these cars just like we did. Daily driver? Weekend warrior?

    I just got it to where I could  drive it a few weeks ago, so I have just been driving it on nice days. I have a  black 66 f-100 that is my daily driver. I have loved old dodges since I was about ten years old. For Christmas 4 years ago my parents got me this car and it was nothing but a rusty body. My dad restored cars for a living and we have been working on it for the last 4 years.
