The guy's dad bought the truck new from a local dealer. It was retired to his field about 20 years ago, with an agreement that the kid wouldn't touch it until the dad passed away. Seems a damn shame that the dad wouldn't work on it with the kid, and see the kid enjoy something, and the old truck come back to life, but... people are strange.
