Six-Shooter was originally intended to be a Northen California daily driver. California speed limits are 65 mph. The weather is mild, no snow or extreme temperatures. A stock 1963 Chevy truck could handle those conditions. But then it got moved to SW Montana. Although Six-Shooter could do 80+ mph, his preferred cruising speed was more like 70 mph. And Six-Shooter absolutely hated snow and ice. This boy is a fair to warm weather guy.
So, in SW Montana Six-Shooter likes to spend the winter months indoors entertaining his handlers with maintanence and upgrades. All of which is why Six-Shooter decided to move to a new home in SE Montana.
The new caretakers were ready for a summer driver that also provided the opportunity for a family project in the winter months. Six-Shooter struts his Patina Glory through the spring and summer months and spends his winters sheltered from the Montana winters. He gets the attention and care he deserves.
