No problem rob, I hope you have fun, sounds like more fun than what I have
planned (Going to a cousin's graduation). Maybe you'll get lucky and it
will rain, I'm sure you'll have more fun towing with the truck, and I'm
sure people will like seeing it as much if not more than the '39. Enjoy
the parade-
