So my dad is in his mid 60's. He has been on work disability since he was 37. About 5 years ago he was diagnosed with cancer.
To date he has had about 25 surgeries, been in a upper body cast, walked with a cane, crutches, been in a wheel chair etc...
He has beaten the Cancer, and once again walks unassisted despite the titanium hip to below knee replacement in his right leg.
He is also missing a liver and half a lung.
Despite all this, he is Happy and continues to live each day. I don't know how he does it, but i'm glad he does. The existence of my 2 boys surely helps.
He and my mom are finally going on vacation next week. It's been a long time. 8 days in Vegas.
They don't gamble. They do have a huge list of places to go and things to do.
One of those things will be eating up my time. He has decided he wants a new toy.
So while he's out there he will be looking for a 50's or late 70's Ford F-100 project truck.
Guess who gets to build it for him. :roll:
On the plus side, he is finally listening and receptive to my ideas.
It will be getting a Crown Vic transplant. Google Crown Vic into F-100, lots of info.
So while my Truck sits stored untouched in the barn, we will be undertaking a new project.
Stay tuned, this is going to get interesting.
