Mind if my boy has a look at your truck?

[wsucougarx]

Thanks for making a little boys day! Though it may have seemed like a small repetitious deed, that display of kindness will probably be forever in his memory.

Good job 91W350. It does make a difference in a child's life.

You Rock! plain and simple. My deuce doesnt go out much, but fueling up at the gas station is often a time when a parent asks, "can my kid look at it?",,,,But I am kind of gladl I didnt offer to give a ride , it turned out that my fuel shutoff cable was stuck in the off position... duh,,, would have looked real lame talking about how great these trucks are,,,,,then pie in the face.....

I was safe there, mine was already running. That big beaming smile he had the whole time will light up the memories for quite some time. Kind of a cool kid, he was very polite and soft spoken. He had many scars, I take it from various operations the little guy has survived already. It was good for both of us and the hobby, it really was. Glen

Congrats on takin the time to share with the WHOLE family! Not only the jr, but the Mom and Dad as well! My hat is off! Easily could have said, "No" and "I'm busy Mr." The ride will stay with him forever! I still remember the time my Dad took me to the circus, and they were loading up. I missed it, or so I thought. Then, the elephant trainer saw my Pops and me, and offered me a ride on one of the pacaderms! WOW! First and ONLY elephant ride for me! and still a CHERISHED memory of my Father and myself spending time together! WAY TO GO!!
God bless you, Sir!

Nice job sir!! Mega karma points on your scoreboard

So many kids today don't have any positive things that they can do or look forward too, or look back on. A kid can be broken or lifted up by our actions. You've given him a gift that will last a lifetime.

Thank you for being one of the people that brings a good light to our hobby. Keep it up sir.

Hi Glenn, How are you doing, and how are your pals? That's a great momment. Good job.

 

[MyothersanM1]

Outstanding. I'll bet a dollar to donuts the fine young lad will always remember his Deuce ride. That's what we do here. If we make one person smile then we have accomplished the objective. These cantankerous rust-buckets are about giving back to the community.

The good Lord has smiled on you today. You have reflected great honor and respect upon the Military Vehicle Collector Brotherhood. Charlie-Mike and let's keepem' rollin'.

PS: In life, we have the options of doing the right things; doing things right; or doing the right things right. Mankind tends to get a bit emotional when everything comes together. Here's another example that just dropped into my email inbox today (not meaning to be a thread hijacking), a COUNTER-INTUITIVE DECISION of doing something "right" that is ultimately the RIGHT thing to do....
