First time my truck rolled down the road on its own wheels.


I was also wondering if there is a big truck part of this website. I googled something and that's what drew me here but I cant find it. If it is still around and somebody can point me to it that would be great. Thanks.

Cool hey at least it rolls

What you guys act like that's the first time you've seen someone run a red light, come on around here and you can watch the cops do it too..

Gentlemen! this thread does not need to be turned into a peeing match! Weve all noticed that the OP video shows that the driver of the truck ran the red light. Enough said about this. Lets turn the thread back to discussing the fact that the OP's truck made it down the road

Very cool. Anytime you can see your project rolling along is a good feeling. Even if it is being towed.

Re: First time my truck rolled down the road on its own wheels.

I'm curious as to where you were taking it !

Repair shop ?

Body shop ?

As mentioned, It feels good to have a project a roller again, My 74 hasn't rolled in 8 years....
