My sons and I are all involved in our Jeep/Dodge habit. My father passed away in April of 2006. He was a truck driver his whole life, and my boys decided that they wanted to do a tribute build in memory of 'pap'. After several weeks of searching, we came across the Dodge truck in the picture. It was originally a dump truck, but when we purchased it in Central Pennsylvania, it had a flat bed on it. We bought the dump bed to install on the truck after we paint it. The picture was a Photoshop project for this class. It gives us an idea of how it will look. The truck will be painted white with black fenders, a paint scheme that my dad's trucks were many years ago.
Restoring old trucks is a great hobby, although it can get quite expensive. It also takes up a lot of room in the garage, but we are very lucky to have such a garage.
I hope to post other photos of some our projects very soon.

I think that it is great that you are working with your sons on a project that honors your father. There isn't a better way for you to make memories with them. It also looks like you figured out how to use Photoshop. Your picture looks great!
That picture is really good. I looked at in and thought that was the real truck. Nicely done!
I have to agree that is great picture. I think its good that you found somewhere to draw your inspiration from and I look forward to seeing future pictures.
