Even Holley fell in love with my truck at LS Fest - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

While at LS Fest X a few weeks ago, the Holley media crew wanted to make a video and do an interview about my truck. Pretty cool other than me in it.

Whats not to Love ? Killer Truck

**special-K** · 10-07-2019, 06:36 PM

Well deserved, Matt. I've watched that truck evolve, remember when it was black and all the progressions you've taken it through. All things with purpose while looking better and better with each change. Congratulations on making it on the video. You did a good job

LakeAnna · 10-07-2019, 08:18 PM

That's a cool video!

Southpaw69 · 10-07-2019, 08:51 PM

Cool video, very cool truck. Good work.

rsavage · 10-07-2019, 09:57 PM

Great truck and great video. You have done some really nice work. Sounds great and looks like it is real quick. Congrats!

Andy4639 · 10-07-2019, 10:14 PM

Congrat's man! Well deserved.

**Getter-Done** · 10-07-2019, 10:53 PM

East TN, Western Carolinas, North GA, and southwest VA have a plethora of amazing roads! "That" road (US 129) is just the one that's the most commercialized. It's also the most congested. I'm actually in the planning stages of routing a country cruise through some amazing windy roads of East TN through several counties. All roads being lesser known roadways so heavy traffic shouldn't be an issue.

Getter Done, where are you in TN?

I'm in Middle Tn.
Pretty close to the Fairgrounds in Nashville.
They have a few swap meets and Car shows there.
Also close to the Fairgrounds in Lebanon.
They have about the same there also.

That was great recognition you got at that show and well deserved.
You have a great looking truck.

Yeah, there's all kinds of meets and shows in Middle TN!

Thanks for the compliment! I was actually packing up the truck to head over to NCM for our afternoon session. I just happened to turn around and the Holley media crew was standing there and asked if they could do an interview and take some videos for a feature. Like I was gonna say no...

The only downside was they took so long that it almost made me late for the NCM session. I guess that was a good reason, though.

Cool video and even cooler truck!

KMC3420 · 10-09-2019, 10:43 AM

Way to go! Truck is looking awesome and looks to be a ton of fun! Keep on smiling.

That video they did was great! Your truck truly deserves the love! Curvy roads? I always liked coming into Dayton, TN on 30. God's country!

**Steeveedee** · 10-09-2019, 01:45 PM

Late to the party. Nice truck and video!

I always liked the look of your stepside. I'd like my 70 to sit exactly like yours, and even the exact same wheels. Damn nice truck you've got there.
