Yesterday, I interviewed the owner of this vintage
beast of a pick-up truck for Wavelength magazine. It is a 1946 Ford Pick-up and
has growling 4.2 litre engine. The owner is Stuart Blake and he was an absolute
legend to give up his time and be patent, whilst Alexa did the photo and I asked
him a bunch of questions.
Stuart turned out to be a classic. He rebuilt this
truck, including the engine, himself. He also owns a hot rod and a classic
Cadillac, refurbishes jukeboxes and has a vintage surfboard collection.
Collecting and owning stylish classics like this can
sometimes seem like an image choice but talking to Stuart you quickly realise
that it is something he loves to do and he really lives it. The story about the
Stuart and his truck will be in the next issue of Wavelength.
