When Terry’s Dad passed, Terry’s Mother gave to our youngest daughter, Jack’s pick-up. Misty loved her Grandpa very much and felt more than honored to be given this very visible reminder of her Grandfather.
Misty and Kelly drove this old pick-up for several years, gradually moving to different pickups over time, but always keeping this special reminder of Jack and the very generous gift of the pick-up from Marjorie.
Last month, Misty and Kelly gifted this classic GMC to their oldest daughter, who LOVES the pick-up and wanted it for her own.
Since the truck had been living here, Terry got it all aired up, greased up, oiled up, spruced up; ready for its new life.
Sunday, around 4:00 in the afternoon, the GMC went to its new home. Ready to drive around with a cute blonde wearing a cowgirl hat. 🙂

What a cool truck ~ I bet she’s absolutely thrilled!

She is. It will take some getting used to as it doesn’t have power steering—although, she drives a standard already.

That is so awesome! We had almost the exact duplicate of that truck right down to the color! We bought it from my Uncle Rich, who just passed away. Alas, we hadn’t had it long when a fool racing to college passed somebody on a blind hill and hit me. I saw it coming and pulled off into a farm driveway, but he bounced off the other car and hit me anyhow. I was fine, but the poor truck wasn’t

I’m sure the old pick-up will enjoy its new life. I’m equally sure the new owner will enjoy it even more!

She is…she probably won’t realize it until she is a Mom of a 17 year girl. 🙂

I wonder if her own daughter will drive it some day… I got to drive my Ba’s little old Mini for the last few years of its life. Not as cool as the truck, but probably a bit easier to steer – and park!
