That besides his practice is Dr Marsales passion.
We think that Dr Marsales is a very good Vet and we bet that Our Angels can ride in that truck anytime:love::love:

No one rides in this, it is an antique truck , a rare truck worth a great deal of money.
I hardly ever go to his practice although I wish I could as I would love to go where My Angels are laid to rest.
I bet they "borrow" the truck and go riding into town.:love::love::love:

Such a neat old truck! I think I came from a former era because I love all the old buildings, bridges and old stuff, anything considered "antique", I just love!

Gary: that truck is not refinished......:) Usually antique vehicles are driven in parades and at antique vehicle shows....... Did you get Peter's permission to post his photo? You really should.............

Just because it is not spiffy and shiny doesn't mean it's not been refinished. Gary said it was renovated, and besides, anyone familiar with old and antique cars knows that red paint fades the fastest. So while it is not shiny candy-apple red, it has been renovated, and looks to be in good shape, especially for a truck that has survived 90 Canadian winters.

And I did mention it to Dr Marsales , and he did not mind a bit that I posted his photo on Cat General.
He is proud of the work he has done onn that truck. It is not totally finished as parts are so hard to find for a vechicle this old.
I was kidding and I asked if Our Angels could borrow his truck , and he smiled and said anytime!!
