Sold the 50th
 

As the title reads I sold my 50th today.. I now no longer own any 67-72 chevy trucks . time to move on to the next chapter in my life restoring my chevelle so you all have fun with your trucks... So long i will be in alternative tinkerings from time to time so i will be on here still just not with a truck.. the truck went to Wisconsin this morning..

Sad to see her go and no longer have you here on the message board but understand about moving on to other projects. Hope she went to a good owner/home. Enjoyed reading your posts and viewing your pics over the years, so I have to ask - what did you do with the other sets of wheels you had for her? If I recall you had a set of silver rally's and a set of the skinny stockers with dogdish caps. Hope you can provide a link to the build thread of your Chevelle. Good luck!!

Re: Sold the 50th
 

The rallys and the stockers went to LocDoc the rallys were sold on his 67 shortbox not long ago . Thanks for the kind words..

Re: Sold the 50th
 

I started working on it today making Goodguys next year maybe a bit of a lofty goal.... Since I have quarters,doors, fenders,trunk floor,and a complete frame off resto to do .. Also Chip Foose and the overhaulin team don't live at my house. It's me against the world;)

Re: Sold the 50th
 

I have my 67 RS camaro BUT STILL LOVE MY 67 C10 ! hate to see you sell your truck but good to hear you are working on another project , I would like to find a 50th shortbed project like the one that was on this site for sale a while back , I did not have the money for that one ,, but ya never know if another 50th shortbed pop's up ,,,,

Re: Sold the 50th
 

Thanks for all the kind words guys . i have wanted a 72 chevelle for a long time and the money just isn't here to keep both so the truck had to go . however not all of the truck went my big motor and trans are in the garage waiting to go in the chevelle so a big part of what made the truck fun still lives with me ...

Re: Sold the 50th
 

Maybe that Motor needs a repaint.....I'm thinking a 50th C10 Gold would look good, ;-), looking forward to following along on your Chevelle build.

Re: Sold the 50th
 

Don't worry, another 67-72 truck will find a way back into your life....they always do :)

Re: Sold the 50th
 

:( Your truck is one of the reasons I keep on wrenchin on my LONGBED :( :( :( :(

Re: Sold the 50th
 

Funny I have toyed with the idea of selling my pro-streeter to fund my 67 fastback build. Problem is I can't get enough out of my truck to make it worth while. Everything is in the running gear.

'72 is the last year of the Chevelle as far as I'm concerned. I actually like the single headlights over the '70s dual. They are nice riding, full frame cars. Should be fun. At the risk of hate mail, your shovel is a better investment even though cars/turcks are usually NOT good investments. It's when you sell your ride and don't have another one that stings! Just glad to here you are not starting on the Honda or Toyota!!! lol
