O-H-I-O Porter greetings 🇺🇸 Just found this today. Well, this is one truck I’m gonna have to check the videos on. Love this style of cab…they were boxy, stout & full of pizzazz! So it was a Toter truck? It makes a much nicer semi truck! Love the color! Hey, considering you pulled it out of the weeds, it didn’t take to long to make it a nice rig & one to be PROUD of! Thanks for showing this. I will share this Porter Quote: Make the trip , but don’t forget to enjoy the ride! You will probably NOT get too tired of driving this truck! Blessings!🥰😎✌️
