i have a name for the old girl....

i have been trying to come up with a name for the 39. drum roll please......Mayvelline! i have a cousin in arkansas named mayvelline. i like that name. it has a mid-century ring and feel to it. yea, that's it...Mayvelline it is!!! so, from now on, i will refer to her as such! i love this little truck. i have never felt this way about a car or truck before. i have so much labor into her that i know i will never let her go. i found her on jalopy journals forum, the h.a.m.b. she was in jefferson city, mo. she had been in the woods for many years until i answered the ad and drove down at 5:00am on a saturday morning earlier this year. i fell in love with this little cab on the spot. she was a little rough around the edges, but i knew she could be sweet...real sweet! the rest is chronicled here in this blog. next summer and she'll be at greaserama 2010 wearing new paint, rubber and oh yea, a big block chrysler and a 4 speed!!! hell yea!
