Saying goodbye to an old friend.
So tonight I sold my 70 C/10 with which over the last year I have had so many adventures, it was a great truck, never let me down, just kept on chuggin.
 It was sad seeing it drive away, I snapped this picture as it did.  All I can say is goodbye old friend; You treated me well.

Re: Saying goodbye to an old friend.
I also do the same thing everytime I sell a vehicle. I always watch it go down the street till I can't see it anymore. Just something I do.

Re: Saying goodbye to an old friend.
I did the same thing when I sold my boat and then when it got out of sight I jumped for joy!!
 but like you my vehicles are a different story ... and many I wish I had never sold. |

Re: Saying goodbye to an old friend.
Its sad to see one leave but just think how happy you made someone else .I recently sold my 55 Bel Air and I still get to see it cruising around and the new owner is very happy with it and I never drove it anymore so it made me happy plus it gave me $$$$ to spend on the truck .

Re: Saying goodbye to an old friend.
I'm not one to sell my baby's.I just hope when i die some one stumbles onto my clash of trucks and 1 car and suburbans and gives them good homes.I'm a guy that tends to keep adding parts to all my trucks most of them have engines in them Plus most of them have the 1987--90 700R4 bolted to the 327's and 350's i'm just have sitting under the hoods.Them 700R4 are getting hard to come by i got 5 of them I still have 3 of them to stick under 2 of my running trucks

Re: Saying goodbye to an old friend.
Hope I never have to experience it. Have bought/sold many cars and trucks through my years, but I have never been more passionately in love with any vehicle, like I am my '72.
Actually, the truck belongs to my chihuahua...I'm just the chauffeur. At least that's how it seems most of the time. She goes everywhere with me in that truck. And with that, I think I'll fire her up and go get some fresh donuts!
