The weather was fantastic, with all forecasters reporting rain every day, the sky opened up and both Friday & Saturday were sunny and beautiful. It was amazing!

PLEASE HELP!!!
To help in finding out how many Li'l Red's are still in existence and what equipment they came with, we are asking everyone to fill out the "TRUCK REGISTRY" information form. You can download the form from this link, "TRUCK REGISTRY"
Or you can email pics of your:
VIN plate (drivers door on '78, door jamb on '79) and Certification Label on the driver's door jamb, both years
With this information, I will be able to tell you the exact month, day & hour your truck was built.
email to: lilreddad@comcast.net
"TRUCK REGISTRY" Please copy the form and send it to:
