Re: CA trip
sweeeeeeet.... spend some time in san-fran with your girlfriend before heading east.... you need to take tons of photos and do a road trip thread. Lots of awesome things to see between there and where you are.

Re: CA trip
You can take the Bart (bay area rapid transit) from the airport to Pleasanton. From there a cab ride to the truck would be easy.
www.bart.gov Oh yeah, you want the Dublin/Pleasanton stop. Last edited by k2rm; 02-18-2010 at 06:13 PM. Reason: more info |

Re: CA trip
Been to CA and picked up 2 trucks once a year for the last 3 years.Had a fantastic time each trip and got some nice trucks and nice rust free parts at the pick n pulls .I hit almost every pick n pull in CA each trip.Met some great guys from the board also .

Re: CA trip
Trip got pushed back 6 days to march 2.No I don't have a truck business right now but I am going to open a restoration shop in the near future.I have sold a few of my personal trucks when offered more than I could refuse.I bought a 72 bb cheyenne again.I have only purchased 1 this trip but I have several more that I am going to check out so I may or may not get a 2nd on this trip.Since my girlfriend is going on this trip I wanted to be able to spend a few days loafing around CA and hitting as many pick n pulls as possible while site seeing with her.If I don't blow all my extra funds site seeing and in the pick n pulls I will probably pick up and extra truck to sell off when I get home.I have mostly been collecting to have what I need to be able to have a large collection of 71 and 72 bb trucks that are completely payed for when I open my shop and I can sale for top dollar or just hang onto .I have 5 72 and 1 71 bb trucks right now.All have nice west coast bodies and are loaded cheyenne supers except 1 is a gmc . I want to have several nice trucks that are my personal trucks that can be bought if the money is right and several that can be purchased and built however the customer wants.
