Made A Trip For Parts, Met A Member, Bought A Truck and Made A Friend

I took a drive today out into the Cascade Foothills to meet up with board member Livrat (Mark) to scope out a few parts for my '72 GMC resurrection from the ditch it hit almost 2 years ago. All I can say is wow... lots of great parts and projects and a wealth of information on metal work. I saw and learned a lot today.

Mark is a great cat and I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to his place. I got a couple of bedsides and a passenger side front fender "cup". But what I really was happy about was the 1972 GMC C2500 Super Custom (Custom Camper) he had there. It has damn near ALL the parts I need for my truck. So we struck a deal and the truck will be mine.

Here are a few pics of the C2500 and one pic of the bedsides tucked into my shed at home by my riding lawn mower.

Today was a great day and I'm looking forward to my next trip out to see Mark when I pick the truck up from his place. Thanks again Mark!

If it wasn't for this kick a$$ forum, I would have never been on this trip today. Way cool!
