This is not news to me or any old car person that has ever had the opportunity to experience my Dad's charm with old cars. His talent and generosity defies description. I've always known this, but he continues to push the bounds and impress me more all the time. Today's example is this: I go to visit my in-laws and Dad sends me these photos of what he did today. This Diamond T sat in a barn for 25 years. It was a pretty good ole truck. However, the farmer stacked bags of fertilizer on the driver side running board. The running board itself was completely dissolved and the adjacent rocker panel suffered badly. In a single day, my Dad reversed the greatest tragedy to ever befall this old truck. He said he was taking a break before reparing the bed side. I say he earned it!
