Re: movie trucks

if you are gonna bash a truck, do it to a toyota or what not. i'm a chevy guy when it comes to trucks but some of those 50's Ford are really beautiful and even the later generations worked every bit as hard as our chevys to get where they are. but i do hear you on the wrecking of our beloved 67-72 gm trucks and any other nice condition vintage car/truck that didn't deserve the end it got.

as a side note, i generally get thumbs up from the Harley crowd when i'm out on my 72 cb350 twin.

Re: movie trucks

My truck was used in a few different X-files tv show episodes before I bought it from the movie studio in California. I guess is was used in a lot of tv shows and a early Chevrolet Commercial. My truck used to look a lot different then. Here is a early pick and a now.

Does your truck have a movie star attitude? Will it only drink high octane fuel and use bottled water in it's radiator? Has it ever made you ride in the back? Next it will be hooked on drugs and partying without its underwear!

Nice clean truck!

It does like to have money spent on it because I put a lot of money in to it. I guess it is a Movie Star Diva.

Love the after shot! The old blue does NOT hold a candle to the NEW blue.

Well said! You are right. lets get them to run the Toyotas and Nissans over the edge, they are ment to be disposable and recycleable anyway, there would be no loss that way!
