\n \n Mom & Dads Ford Pick-up <\/span>\n\n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/h1>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

\n

In 1958 or so Dad found, while in the United States Air Force in New Hampshire, a 1932 Ford pickup that he just had to have. He made the purchase and immediately swapped all the drive train components from his current ride a 1940 Ford 2 Dr sedan into the truck. The above photo is some time near 1959 when Dad came home to Johnson Creek, Wisconsin, on leave.\u00a0 With him is his girl friend (not yet married) my mom. Now in 2015 another truck was found, a 1931, that will become converted similarly to what he had back then.<\/span><\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
