Re: What truck do I have? For the Chevy Gods, Historians and Know it alls

Special-K- You are right. Made in Canada, USA company. Hence my comment. Technically you are right. Kidnapped into he U.S.. lol We had to rescue it from just sitting for a decade or so. Step Dad bought the truck. Strip it down to the frame. Repainted with last of lead lacquer paint, chromed engine and everything underneath. Rebuilt with original parts for the most from the ground up. Barely got to enjoy the finished product. Retired and moved to Mexico. He sold all his toys in Canada. He was going to give the truck to a son that was a piece of **** kid to him and had no care for the type and value the truck is. My lady and I had to rescue it.

That's great you are bringing it down to California to enjoy. But, your statement that it belongs in the USA is inaccurate. Looks like it's been where it belongs all it's life, in Canada where it was built!
