What was your first truck?

My First truck was an 64 Ford regular cab long bed. It was tan in color. The steering wheel was semi horizontal like a city bus. I bought it from my brother for $100.00 because it wouldn't start. I pushed it to the garage around the corner and for $26.00 I got it running. I traded a guy a tank of gas for the stereo in his car so I had tunes. Sometimes when I was driving it would just stall and I would have to get out, take a screwdriver and tap the carburetor with the handle because the float would get stuck. A couple of taps and I was "on the road again." I had a lot of great times in that Ford truck. I miss that truck. I want one just like it again!
