    I didn't make it all the way home from work last night, couldn't make it up one last hill to get home.

    So, I talked my wife into taking a ride today with me to get my truck...

    In Buckshot.

    She filmed, while a vented a little "cabin fever"

    The flathead needs a spring tune-up, sounds like it's only running on 6 or 7 :)

    Watching these kind of videos are what lights a fire under my butt to get my project driving!! Looks like y'all have enough snow to last y'all quite a while doing this.. :D

    At least, until you finally kick all of the snow off the road with them tires there.

    Man, that was great! Thanks to your wife for taking these. That great car with that background looks beautiful. Thank you so much for that, really needed the fix, sounds great too! One last thing, you came pretty close the ditch, that would have made it real interesting. Thanks again for sharing.
