Message: I drove past a Sears store recently, all closed down. Then I saw this, (PIC) and remembered. "Sears" on the truck was a simple logo, but it meant a lot to an earlier era. Good memories. And my models help keep them alive. Thanks, Brooklin. (*And for the very young members of the forum: Yes, Dodge used to make trucks.)
