Like anyone else that has heard that phrase, I have somewhat indignantly wondered "Why can't you teach an old dog new tricks?"
While I do not quite have one foot in the grave I think I qualify as an old dog, and while I work in a high tech industry, I certainly feel like blogging is a new trick for me. Hopefully this will either disprove the phrase or prove that I'm not quite an old dog.
I also like the juxtaposition of using a tool that belongs more to my kids than to me to help me capture our attempts to restore a tool that belongs more to my grandfather than to me.
The purpose of this blog is two-fold: Firstly, to chronicle the thoughts and feelings of the Underwood family that accompany the physical changes to the truck and secondly, to allow friends and family to provide advice and encouragement - because we really have no idea what we are doing or how much we have bitten off.
Tracking the progress (or lack thereof) of the Underwood family's attempt to repair, rebuild and slightly restore their 1954 Chevy 3100 1/2 ton pick-up.

I can agree that you are an "old dog". Hurry up and get the "Green Machine" rnnning so I can drive it would ya! Also so I can park my van in the garage again! :)
I can't wait to drive it and get it moved so I can park my van in the garage again. Get working would ya!!
This is going to be fun to see how you get this truck going.
Looks like you have your work cut out for you. Thought I would let you know it's 60 in our garage
