Look what followed me home... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Piece of Work · 01-04-2010, 10:28 PM

I made a 12 hour drive the day after Thanksgiving to Billsbowtie in VA, and bought a'68 short fleet. Bill's a great guy, honest and helpful. After waiting a month for the transportation company I hired to not deliver my truck, l contacted Fine69 (Mike). He contacted Bill on Saturday, picked up my truck on Sunday and delivered it today, before noon. Mike is a pro through and through, and I highly recommend him for all your transportation needs. Long story short, here's what followed me home, from Billsbowtie via Fine69. Thanks, guys.

Very nice score!! What does it run to have a vehicle transported like that if you dont mind me asking. I find great trucks all the time but being in Montana they are pretty much out of the question. Looks like you have yourself one very solid truck!!

I remember seeing that truck in the for sale section....cool truck,,,

Transportation costs vary, type of vehicle, running or not, distance, fuel costs, etc. If you find a vehicle you want, PM
Fine69 for a quote, he will take care of you.

man if you cant find it on craigslist you dont need it. the shipping would probably be more than the truck! if you dont check craigslist you should start cause most of the cool vehicles are in great falls, missula, or billings and surrounding.

Very nice find!

You'd of thought that I had bought it!

My plans are to make it my DD. It is good shape for a 42 year old truck. A little body work to get the panels straight , a fresh coat of red paint, and some custom touches to the interior. Also new A/C before the heat comes back. The motor and trans have 2500 miles on them and the brakes are new.

Nice looking truck!
I agree with all comments about Mike/Fine69. He is really a great guy, he even let me sleep in his yard , in the back of my truck , way back when for the Ohio Truck Meet!.

You da Man Mike.

That's a nice truck. I wish I had the money, because I got the "fuzzies" when I saw it in the classifieds. Enjoy it!
