Re: macco paint and yours for only

Huh. All this time & I never knew the true story of why they built Longhorns. I thought it was for a camper but in reality it was for hay hauling... It takes all kinds...

Re: macco paint and yours for only

wow i wonder what my longhorn would be worth to this guy... lmao. this is an example of someone telling a kid a bunch of bs, and he has been repeating it ever since.

truth be known, it was probably started by a chevy truck salesman back in the day trying to sell a truck to a farmer. he probably tool carpenters that the longhorn was made just for the construction trades so they could lay 8ft material in the bed and close the tailgate. lmao

Re: macco paint and yours for only

Yeah, don't round bales weight about 1000lbs? If so, three is double a 3/4 ton capacity.

I think he's gambling on finding a sucker in Vegas. Or maybe someone else already did.

Well seeing as how you have one of the ONLY 52 left.....I would say it would be worth at least $500,000. Congratulations.

Re: macco paint and yours for only

Longhornman should definately know the "true" story behind these longer than normal rarity's...I should have kept my 71 1 ton!!!


Did you know they only made 2,000 shortbed hay haulers, they were made for "smaller" farms! Only 52 still in existance!

Re: macco paint and yours for only

The sad thing is that he will probably sell it to somebody completely oblivious. That person that bought it will then find this website and tell us about how it is one of 52 registered...it'll be a sad day for that person.

Re: macco paint and yours for only

I am speechless and that doesn't happen to often. Simply amazing.
Quote:
History of 1969 Chevy Longhorn
1. This truck back in 69 was a farm truck.
2. This truck was a special order only through Chevy for the farmers.
3. The purpose for this special ordered truck was for hauling hay.
4. The standard long 8 foot bed truck was not long enough to get 3 bails of hay and shut the tailgate so Chevy developed the 8.5 foot Longhorn which allowed the tailgate to be shut while hauling their hay.
5. Only 500 built for this purpose for hauling hay.
6. Only 52 of these trucks are registered today in the whole USA.
7. The majority of these trucks today is broken down on the farms or has been parted out.

I spent last 5 years restoring this truck and its time to start another. I am asking 35k or OBO and everything listed above is what I have done to this truck and all history of this truck. If you are interested please contact me on my cell at 702-461-2143 and ask for Doug.

Re: macco paint and yours for only

I'm kinda anxious to see the guy get the money from someone who believes that crap! Some people have more money than sense!!

Then I'd be excited to fill the buyer in on how he ate a burger full of

I am sure there is a data base you can check to see how many are registered if it is 52 or not who knows
