Re: Are there trucks in your town you have your eye on....

My '69 C/10 fits this description. The guy that originally restored it (in 1990) decided he was going to sell sometime around 2001-2002, and I was going to buy it, but he decided afterwards to keep it. Fast forward to 2005 and a local mechanic bought it, and was driving it. Last summer he decided to sell it, so when I heard about it, I went up there to buy it, and it was already sold to a guy I know that restores 30's and 40's hot rods (He didn't know I wanted it, so he didn't run under me or anything) He planned to fix the 2 small dents it has acquired since 1990, and have it repainted. I figured I had missed my shot, but I ran into his son about 3 months ago, and I asked about the truck. He said his dad was thinking about selling it, so I went to the bank that day and withdrew a chunk of change and headed to his shop. We hammered out a price, and bought it on the spot. I tried for almost 6 years to buy this truck, and it's MINE now! - lol
