    Hey @anthony myrick , I can totally relate to how you feel about that, I owned a kick ass, 56 IHC S-110 retired, Bell telephone lineman's service truck. I bought it from my Dads wrecking yard, when I got out of the army, for $100.00. I fixed the leaking rope seal on the block and drove it for a few years before I sold it, I wished I had never gotten rid of it, it was a lot of fun !

    I know exactly what you mean, the 56's were my favorite model, they had that
    "VOODOO / TIKI " look of being dumbfounded, long before " TOWMATER " was ever thought of.

    Cobra CSX2427, the only Stage III Dragon Snake factory prepared drag race Cobra. The original owner used his yellow Thunderbird as his tow vehicle.

    It didn't stop him though. Just the Chicken Hawk which was one of the coolest car names.
