    After almost 3 years I finally got my 65 pickup on the road. I put 400 miles on it driving around town and then made a 700 mile round trip to Bar Harbor Maine from RI last week. A little over 1300 miles on it and the only problem is it runs too cold!!!. I stopped at a cruise night in Gardiner ME and entered it in the Ellsworth ME Autumn Gold Show. It drew a lot of attention. I still have a few things to finish up this winter.
