Saturday I took my 1947 Dodge WD-15 out on the road for the first time. It's been seven long years since I started taking it apart. There is still work to do, but I can at least drive it on a daily basis now. Looking back, it seems like decades, not seven years.
The year I bought the truck - 1985. Successful Farming magazine came out to did a story on it.
2004, still a work truck. About this time Lindsey Crawford came out and made a couple of videos of my truck (sorry, there are ads).

I started the restoration in 2006
Two weeks ago - looking pretty raw, but you could see potential.
Last Saturday - on the road!
