I stopped by a guy's house today and he had about 20-25 of our trucks. Bad thing is he didn't want to sell anything. He let me walk around and drool and i counted 7 tilt wheels. Tha bad thing is most of the trucks had the windows down. I remember stopiping by there abou three years ago and he wouldn't sell anything then either. He had a ext cab 72 1/2 4x4 he wanted to put on burb frame and make a dually. It made me so jealous. Thought i would share this with everybody.

chevy_fatman · 12-21-2002, 05:24 PM

You didn't take any pics of that ext. cab by any chance, did you?
Now I wan t a ext. cab too!

travis martin · 12-21-2002, 05:34 PM

No i didn't. I am trying to get teeitup to go back next weekend to show him. Maybe then we can get some pics.

chevy_fatman · 12-21-2002, 05:50 PM

If you can't get any pics, get teeitup to talk this guy to death while you go around back and snatch a couple of them tilts, hehehe

Man, this guy is sitting on a goldmine, I wish I could find something like that around here, at least to drool all over it

**71blksuper4x4** · 12-21-2002, 06:32 PM

Hey travis, is this guy live in N. topeka and the name Terry?????? If so I have met him also and have rode in his sweet chevelle. The chevelle is sweet. runs on like 115-120 octane or something like that. I know about the ext. cab 4x4 and its green. Also, a black swb 4x4 67 on a blazer frame and the blue and white cheyenne super and tilts and short beds. If it is the same guy.

teeitup · 12-21-2002, 09:31 PM

Hey Fatman are you insinuating I talk alot

, I would if I had too!!he he
Trevor, I think that is the guy just off I-70 is what Travis said. He wants to buy my gold burb Travis told me. I'm trying to get things worked out so I can go down with Travis and my camera and try to talk him out of a few things he has. Did you have any luck with him Trevor? Thanks Randy
Just giving you a hard time Fatman! If I bought that burb out by you my wife would shoot me!

Longhorn Man · 12-22-2002, 01:12 AM

Le me guess...he plans on restoring every single one of them...someday huh?

travis martin · 12-22-2002, 01:49 AM

Trevor the guy's name is Terry. The ext cab is green. He does have a 67 shortbed 4x4. Man are you good or what. But he is off of I-70 not in N Topeka. He is setting on a goldmine and it makes me jealous. I would like to have half of that stuff. Went donw to Joe's from joesjunk he has some nice trucks down there. Saw his black dually in person that thing is awsome. Like i told Joe the pictures he showed on his post don't do the truck any justice. If it wasn't for the women i would probably still be there if he didn't kick me out of his house.

**71blksuper4x4** · 12-22-2002, 02:33 AM

Yah, off california street right????

**71blksuper4x4** · 12-22-2002, 02:52 AM

Sorry Teeitup, well, I haven't had luck with him yet. I am trying to get the bed off of that ext. cab for my Super. He is one of those guys that you have to become their friend and really really admire his stuff to get him to talk to you, and if he isn't outside, it's harder to get him to talk. I got lucky to ride in his 71' chevelle though. God that thing had a monster engine in it. He has got 1 cheyenne (ochre/white), 71-2 ext. cab green 4x4, 67 4x4 cab on ext. blazer frame swb, 70 dually 4x4 on 73+ frame, another 4x4 he is trading something for, a 67-8 mobile home camper truck thing w/ buckets, many 67-8 trucks w/ buckets in them, 2 trucks with chopped tops(1 of them swb), a 70 ss 396 chevelle, His baby 71 ss Pro street chevelle, and a chopped 63 split window vette. Oh, and tons of parts. I have walked through his stuff many times, but have yet been successful buying anything.

travis martin · 12-22-2002, 07:38 PM

He invited me in his house and we talked for about 30 min had to leave the wife and kid in the truck and they were mad when i came back outside. They helped me look around, the wife kept pointing things out to me trying to help me out. I think she was amazed as i was. Wish me luck i'm gonna try again.

ol skool 68 · 12-22-2002, 08:56 PM

good god, i would be in heaven if i had place like that around here, there is not much in the way of parts trucks here in jacksonville fl. i looked for over a year to find my 68 SWB fleetside, but since then it has been slim pickings on good donor parts at the local junkyards. this guy unfortunately knows that he is sitting on a gold mine. man i wish you guys luck! i know there was a guy like that who lived just outside tulsa when i lived there, he had 8 or 9 trucks and i couldn't ever get him to sell me one, even the worse one he had, he wouldn't come off it.!!

teeitup · 12-22-2002, 09:06 PM

It sounds like we will need alot of luck! Maybe atleast get our foot in the door. Travis is a good BS'er so that will help, I'm the quiet one!

travis martin · 12-22-2002, 09:52 PM

That hurt Randy. Thats all i have to say about that.

teeitup · 12-23-2002, 08:56 AM

Sorry Travis!!!

travis martin · 12-23-2002, 09:09 AM

I know you were kidding so was i. Maybe we will have luck and get some pics for everybody, also get some good stuff for ourselves.
