So true! My Dad had a 70 LWB and has a 72 Super SWB that I drove as a teenager. My brother and I have been arguing who gets it when Dad passes or decides to get rid if it - lol. I picked up mine about a month ago (I got on a air-cooled kick for a few years). My son who is 14, is trying to get me to buy a 69 for him thats for sale on a local road. In my opinion, the best looking truck that was ever made.

Re: New Guy Here

Geez...that just amazes me!!!! A new guy posts and Longhorn Man already knows his truck and the history of the beast...LOL! That is some great information there! Since this truck has some history already with that hood ornament, I am going to change my opinion on the "cargoil" issue and insist that it stays! It is your truck and you can do what you want with it and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

When I had the hood ornament off last spring, I cleaned it up and on the back was a signature with "1990" underneath it, so I wonder if it has been on the hood for the last 18 years. Yeah, the guy that sold us the truck said we could take the cargoil off if we want, but I liked the thing so we never did. And then I saw the picture of it out in California and saw it had tha cargoil on it back then and thought it was cool.

I have said the same thing on a few resurrected older posts and the OP signed in a couple of days later. Evidently they got an email notice about a reply to their thread..... So you never know when someone is going to pop back in.

Re: New Guy Here

I agree. I almost ended my post with, "but who knows?"

Years ago I had a question for a member that hadn't logged in in over a year so I PM'd them. They got an email notification and messaged me back with the answer I needed. Pretty cool.
