Date: Fri Sep 28 2001 Time: 05:49:54 Title:    My 54 R100 Contributer:    J. Baker Story:    I found my truck sitting in a friends yard where it had been abandoned. A lady parked it there and said she would be back to get it "in a month or so." That was 6 years ago. Due to state law, the truck had to impounded and the auctioned before I could get a clear title, because I could not find the owner. A friend who owns a tow company helped me with that one. Total purchase price was $36.81, but IT RUNS. I was the only one at the auction who wanted it and bidding started at $35.00. I drove it home and started killing all the spiders and various other bugs who had moved in. I've rebuilt the brake system, rewired it, and hope to start on the interior soon. It still has the orignal black diamond 220 in it. The guys I work with make fun of me for owning a "corn binder", but I like the old truck. I don't know what the end result will be, maybe pro street?, but I'm havng fun getting there.
