MEMORIES <\/span><\/strong>improve with age. Things that weren’t that special at the time assume a more favored place in our memory. When the City of Red Deer insurers declared what happened to my truck an ‘Act of God’ and refused to pay for damages, I pretty much lost interest in the truck.\u00a0 Having a few decades to think about it, the damage could have easily been repaired with tools from my dads body shop. I couldn’t wrap my head around it at the time.
\nFOR <\/strong>those of you with the will and the skill to restore an old truck, you have come to the right place. Over The Hill Classic Trucks!
\nALL <\/strong>too many times lately I get requests for ‘unobtainium’.\u00a0 When I started The Last Ride Auto Undertakers <\/strong><\/em>back in 1994 I used to get calls for ’57 Chevies, Mopar muscle cars, and even the odd idiot who thought I might have a ’32 Ford stashed somewhere.\u00a0 The scale of things unobtainable has moved up a couple of decades- especially for those things Mint, Rust-free, and in a particular color.<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0 Think about it, a ‘square-body’ Chevrolet Truck is over 45 years old!\u00a0 That is like a Model A Ford back when I got my driver’s license.
