As Promised the Truck rebuild

So they started in July, and for 2 full months they worked so hard. The boys pulled apart every panel on the old plow truck. We call her BLISTER. They cut out the rust , replaced all the body panels and rebuilt the engine... I think L and C liked that the best. The carport was a make shift garage...it was a HUGE mess. We sanded and sanded all the panels (I will never do that again!) Everything is pretty much new and the rust bucket is no more. The inside still needs some work..the boys bought Mike new inside door panels for Christmas..but he'll have to wait till spring to put them in.
At the end of September She went in for Paint..and look at her now....too pretty to plow snow with, but I'm not shovelling our driveway..hah
A big Thank you to John the Painter...what an amazing job he did.
Hope you like the storyboard Mike :)
