Born & raised 8 mi from nearest town, youngest of 6 sons. We got electricity in 1947. Pa built wooden truck bodies. He bought an electric drill to use on those truck bodies. I was 8 yrol. My brothers drilled holes for side bodies, I'd put 1/4'' carriage bolts in those holes, bang'm with hammer, put washer & nut on other end, outside one ov'm tighten'm. Anything Pa or my brothers thought I could do, I did! So I kinda grew up learning about Yellow pine. Frame of truck had a hump up over rear axle housing. Paw used a ?foot adze? to cut out a ?notch? in 4x6 so the 4x6 laid flat on frame & it extended past end of metal frame and a little more. It was all bolted/held/holed/down to the trucks metal frame with metal from a blacksmith shop. It laid across top of 4x6 and two long bolts reaching bottom of truck frame where another piece from blacksmith, but somewhat shorter, metal frame down there was a little narrower, Paw had smith to cut the bottom pices shorter, also with the holes for those 2 long bolts from top to go thru, with flat & lock washer and square nut(tighten with adjustable wrench). Years went by, some brothers left home, I got older, could drill holes, more time went by, Paw got older, quit building bodies, I wuz glad ov that. I helped do wood working around the community. THIS WaS LONG AGO & FAR AWAY. THANKS FOR READING Buck
