Classic Chevy pickup

POWER PICKUP!

To say Tom Long has an interest in cars is to say the Pope has an interest in religion. Long has always been a “car guy,” just like the rest of us.

But Long had a real urge to own something with the extra shot of adrenaline that comes from potent power under the hood.
