Well Mudpuppy, a Bears fan you say , well I won't hold it against you. Rained here all night and all day, half my property is flooded and its going to freeze tonight. I don't know how the boys in Canada do it.

Rbelgum, here's the picture I promised. I've been on the site for a few years now, lost old logins... Can't help being a Bears fan, grew up on Gale Sayers.

Kevin, I follow what you are saying about starting a vehicle at that temp, but didn't have a choice. Had to open the driveway for fuel oil delivery. Ended up calling a friend who helped me out with plowing.

Nice truck pic! Great setting. It looks almost new. I call those 'time capsules'.

Re: winter in WI

I have to agree, that color blue really pops out. Good restoration.

Beautiful truck! That was the original color of mine before someone painted it orange. S-120s rule!- Stickman 207

Re: winter in WI

Late September photo a few years ago in a maple/ash forest. This truck has had an easy life. My grandfather bought the truck new, and may have had it repainted in the mid 1960's. Used for hauling brush, firewood, garbage to the dump, and plowing snow. Survived a summer when my teenaged sisters drove it. It is fun to drive, though finding good tires is a challenge.
