Default Old Coke truck

I have gotten myself into something and not quite sure what to do next. I purchased a 1964 cabover Ford Coke truck with 120 case of filled embossed Coke bottles. It was restored by the owner of a local Coke distributor about 20-25 years ago, he passed about 10-12 years ago and it was walled up in a building and left there since. It should not be a major issue to get it back going after I tear out the wall. My question is what next? lol It's terrible to get bored, things happen like this around my house a little more than they should.

You can tell this was in the seventies its the second from the left. They just weren't cloning 64 Coke trucks back then, so yes Mr.70 it does appear to be &quot;The Real Thing&quot;

Bring it to an AACA National Meet, they have a class for commerical vehicles of this type and the people will love it!! There is one held in conjunction with the Charlotte Auto Fair in April.
