My Mom knit this without any sort of pattern. She did this just by looking at my 66 1/2 cab. It even has axles and drive shafts. As an added touch she got a case with a mirrored back for it and put down some grass and rock. I think it came out really cool!

I think you should submit those pics to Bronco driver. I am certain they will publish them, and when they do get an extra copy of that issue and give it to your mom

that is a great item. Anything made by moms are valuable. I have some of my mom's oil paintings, reminds me of her every time i look at them.

You can't put a price tag on something as cool as what your mom did. Very nice and I agree with Explorer, take her out to a very nice dinner. Very cool!!!;D
