Heading out to get another donor truck. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**specialtyretail** · 12-15-2012, 09:44 AM

Got the trailer hooked up, TomTom programmed, money in the wallet and pistol loaded. Going to pick up a 69 long bed roller to knock in the head. Ever have one of those deals that just don't seem/sound/feel right?? This is one of them. Maybe I am just getting older but this deal has had a few odd twists to it plus it is a new area for me to be going into. Just me I am sure. Will have pics here in a few hours.. Rain + steel trailer floor = busted ass...

Thanks, we are always careful and luck seems to usually go my way. I am sure it is just me. This time of year everbody's plans change on the spur of the moment because of "The Holidays". I guess a poor excuse is better than none. I am like that rainman guy, I don't like changes in plans.

Hope it goes well and if it doesn't...you'll have a truck bed to throw them in. Just take a tarp and some rope.

my wife looked at me funny the first time she saw me prepping to head for a CL buy. hooked up the trailer. loaded the floor jack, two spares a bundle of wrenches and other tools. went inside and came backout with bottled water and the G21. then i explained why and now she will always ask if i am packing when i leave.

Good luck!

Hey guys. Thanks for all the well wishes. Got there and back, no trouble. I feel kind of bad. It was a young couple, like a lot of us when we were young, have the wolves barking at the door, bills due, sick kid, car troubles,, like I said, we have all been there. Really pleasant young man, lots of help loading the truck. Paid him and told him it would all work out, he wasn't alone and everyone has tough times, just can't give up. My kind moment of the year, now I can go back to being the ass I always am. Anyways, here it is...... Dig the fan shroud that was in the bed with a ton of junk..

Shyguy · 12-15-2012, 02:14 PM

Glad you made the trip ok.
