Nice 49 Stude Pickup In Kentucky

[JoeHall]

Was at church about 100 miles up the road today, and my older brother drove his truck. Thought I'd get a pic or two and post them just for kicks. It is a nice driver, with Stude 289 "cloverleaf" motor, T85 tranny, 9" Ford rear end, and Turner front disc brakes. He started with a $2000 fixer-upper he bought in SB 6-8 years ago, with OEM drive train. He did all the work himself, has put maybe 5000 miles on it since restoration, and just loves it.

I also like it!
What is the blue sticker/tag that expires on Halloween?
I see that it has A/C, not mentioned.
The first picture looks like they have separate truck parking.

The blue sticker means Handicapped
It has an AC unit that also has a heater coil. Whether in summer with AC on, or winter with heat on, it is impossible to stay in the cab with it on, Hi, or even Intermediate setting.
Country church setting, and I guess truck drivers grabbed the shadiest spot on that day

All I needed to see was the AC, after that I knew it had to be related to Joe or JD! Great looking truck Joe, was great to talk to you and son in SB.

Thanks Joe B,
It was great to see and chat with you & Nancy in SB also.
The truck is Bob's, and yes, we are partial to those dual element AC/heater units here in KY. We need to get together and install one in that 56J of yours
