I brought this truck about 3 years ago and only drove it a couple of times before neglect, and a lost key meant that it ended up just sitting for a couple of years. meanwhile, I discovered this thing called KZitem.
I feared that sooner or later, Travis, Kevin, Dalton, Cody, Chris, Derek, or Buff would be buying this truck from my kids to make a "Will it run?" video. I pictured the viewers wondering why it was parked for so long.
I didn't work the week before the duct tape drags and I had vague ideas about getting this thing running and limping it down to Tucson and I ended up doing nothing. I sat on my ass not finishing my project watching Puddin tell me not to sit on my ass.
I had dithered so long that I didn't make the website in time to get the all access pass. In order to get in early to meet some of the above KZitemrs I put my junky old 15 year old Prius in the car show just to get in the gates early.
I thoroughly enjoyed meeting many of the above characters and I spent some time talking to Buff from @BuffsGarage. Buff gifted me a keychain which I promised would be attached to the key of a running vehicle shortly.
He RUNS!!!
THANKS for the inspiration and motivation:

and @JunkyardMook that started me down this automotive community rabbit hole when I was looking for information on this very truck. Kevin was helping her get an old c60ish dump truck running . . .just for the joy of seeing it run.
that led to KZitem suggesting a vice group garage video that happened to be the one where Derek was trying to teach Jessica how to do of children burnouts in that C6 convertible.)
Not to offend anybody that has a C6 Corvette because they are pretty amazing cars but that's not my idea of old school car guy and that's not the kind of car guy I am and I didn't know at the time that Derek was my kind of car guy. I was just feeling nostalgic because the interplay between the two of them reminded me of myself and my (now former) wife (and continuing mother of my impressive collection of children) when we used to blog together about our marital life.
