I once had a '48 Dodge farm truck. I was the fourth owner, and I knew all of the previous three. The original owner, who bought it new, lived only about three miles away.
The third owner really hadn't done justice to it, and the truck was a mess when I bought it. I cleaned it up, put a nice paint job on it, new floor in the box, etc, and had it to a point where I drove it in parades occasionally, although it was still a working farm truck.

The original owner is now deceased, but the son who bought the truck lives about four miles from me, and I still see the old gal out in his yard once in a while, although he mostly keeps it inside.
