Uncle Lee was a lover of old cars & pickups driving one or the other. He had the most beautiful Chevy pickup a Royal Blue color when I was young... The whole truck shined including the engine. I believe it was a 1937 but am not sure. He lived with grandmother till her death them sharing the farming work together.
