Addictive Hobby!!!

Wow! I have owned my truck for about two months and my plans for the truck are coming together. Then out of no where comes the idea that I need a big block 3/4 ton truck also just to tool around in. So I am selling my 02 F-150 Supercrew and I am going hunting... I found one already but I have to wait and see how things turn out with the deal... Damn I am going Chevy truck crazy....

Re: Addictive Hobby!!!

I have never noticed that many old chevy trucks till I bought one... On the central coast of California there is a lot of original unmolested trucks just sitting in driveways...

Re: Addictive Hobby!!!

and then after that 3/4 ton Big block truck is found and purchased you will come to realize that you could also really use a sport utility type model..... maybe of that sweeeet 69-72 variety . Have fun with your new found addiction, Cb

If I could only convince the wife that I need to drive a classic truck as my DD..... I spend a lot of my free time on this place, so I've caught classictruckitis as well.....

Yeah, there's a fair amount of 'em runnin' around - even quite a few still working for their living. We were having some work done at out office and a guy came in with a '68 GMC, that light copper color paint, looked original, with a utility bed and buddy buckets in it. I asked him about it, he didn't know what he had, he had bought it from a friend for $500. No rust, body pretty straight. The weather here is a little kinder to them here than in other areas.
