Thanks D, I knew you would have an eye on this being that it was just a hop, skip and a jump for you to Wickenburg. Heck yes! It's always a good time down there. I have it marked on my calendar, I'm planning on bringing the '66 Crew.

Saw your link in Dino's thread, & I just had to come take a peek. Wow, what a nice find! Don't think you could find a much better one to start with. Looks good now, but I look forward to seeing what you do with it. :bowtie:

That would be another great picture, might even start a new thread. Post Your Towing and Trailer Queen 60-66 Chevy And GMC Trucks. It is ok to be jealous, that's the best part of being on this forum it keeps everyone searching for that got have or would love to have truck.

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today

Replaced the grill support with a straight OEM support from my stash of spare parts. Installed a new grill, front bumper and rear license plate. I had to make a spacer to lower license plate mount to make room for license plate frame.

This was by far Dino's biggest and best party. Thanks again to Dino and his family for being such great host's. So many cool trucks showed up, some had to be turned away. Dino is going to have to find a larger place to hold this event in 2015. More photos to follow.

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today

looks cool, I said a couple years ago that dino was going to end up with his own show!
I mean he already has one-the git down-, but I mean an actual couple day event separate from the goodguys....

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today

A snow storm rolled through central and northern Arizona on New Years Eve. This could be the first time the 66 Crew has seen snow as it was bought new in Phoenix, Arizona and lived in Wickenburg, Arizona its whole life. 110 degree plus heat desert country. Can't wait to get a big enough garage built to get all my trucks inside out of the weather.

Thanks amueller!

Did you move back to Utah? I was looking for you this year at Dino's. Last year you said you had moved to Phoenix. I assume you still have the panel, the truck and the beautiful girl that you brought with you to the show last year?

Do you live in or around Cottonwood, Sedona area ? Kind of looks like that area.
Nice trucks by the way.

Thanks for the nice complement CHIZZLER,

And for helping save another 60-66 Crew Cab. I have seen several threads that members have given up on trying to build there own Crew Cab out of several cabs. I take my hat off to those that have attempted to build one. It is so much easier to start with one that the coach companies have already built but have been well used and abused. So keep up the good work, you are that much ahead of others that have tried.

Thanks Stickman,

Yes this is in Cottonwood and the mountain behind in the picture is Mingus Mountain. It is beautiful here as well as the Red Rocks of Sedona when it snows.

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today

I thought so, it's in my territory and I've been going up there for 15 yrs once a week so I'm pretty familiar with the area. Thought about moving up the there at one time.
