Grey Goose

Look's like I'm back where it all started, in the trenches with my 60-66 brothers. The Grey Goose comes to us from world famous Rene ( C10 King ) up in A****er CA. As everyone knew he always wanted a big window 60's truck and as luck would have it he found a dang near perfect big window custom 66. After he put his magic hands on it it was cleaned up with some fresh trim, bumpers and a really cool o.g. seat recovered in the late 60's ( funny story). Well he didn't own it long after I found about it and how cool it was. Muhahaha, don't worry buddy you'll get another one.
Now the story goes on as the fate of the goose unfolds as we hoped it would. I get a call from a fellow Canuck from up in Saskatchewan, hell bent on gettin a cool 66 laid out Delmo style. Spends his days in a combine and wants to go tear up the back roads after work I suppose. So the deal was struck and construction began on what is going to be the coolest farm truck Saskatchewan has ever seen. Details to follow, back to work.....not me...you!

Re: Grey Goose

do you even have to look for these or do they just come knocking on their own? Can't wait to see what you have thought out for this one.

Re: Grey Goose

Nice!!!

I think deep down every old Chevy wants to feel Delmos gentle touch. Especially the super clean unmolested ones. They wanna be bad. They natuarally gravitate to Delmo...

I'm with you all the way, but we can relax and enjoy knowing it remains in capable hands. Start the show Del.

Re: Grey Goose

Del, I can hardly wait to see the outcome (like everybody else! ) Here's a few pic's of what the "Grey Goose" looked like when it followed me home. Oh, and last pic is when we finally quit negotiating the price and sealed the deal with a kiss. (Note!....Del, next time shave!)
