Why do people always feel blacking out a license plate is necessary, hundreds of strangers see it every day as you drive down the road....

[MrGoodpliers]

That's a handyman wagon which is still cool, but not nearly as cool as a Nomad.

Heres my weekly sightings. The 68 and 67 tow truck were for sale on the side of the road so I stopped and the 66-down has been rotting away in that same spot since I began driving. Funny they actually cleared all the brush away from it so I could take the picture this week. maybe its going away soon. Ill miss it.

That gold '68 looks to be a custom camper. Note the atenae on the front fender near the badges. It also has some nice roof marker lights.

The Gold one has a pintle ball in the middle of the bed and was a 350 A/T. they were looking for $3750. I believe it did say custom camper on it. You'd prolly recognize the seller. He's on the south corner of Sound ave and 105 across from Briarmeres. He's always got something up for sale.

That tow truck was for sale in Riverhead near Roanoke for a while now he's got that up there too. Its alot rougher than it looks. Rockers, floors etc rotted pretty bad. Good looker from a distance tho.

hmmmm i'll be going right through there tomorrow... although i just donated almost $1200 to GMCPaul, so i shouldnt even think about it. Plus the lady would make me sleep in it if i brought it home... lol

[sir_talk_alot]

the tow truck is confusing, its a chevy, but i guess he liked the gmc grille and lights better. he uses it as his normal tow truck. and the suburban is sick, not the body i like, but everything flat blacked out.

i like it, pretty cool stuff. i should have done the same idea with the guys ratrod made of pipes, sure would help me keep my truck clean.

[jeffg1010]

It's rough; and he daily drives the s**t out of it. But is it still cool? OH YEAH...

[shawno72]

I never miss a day to drive mine. Guess that's why it's called a daily driver.

look at this beautiful cheyanne i saw today. looks identical to mine, almost the same wheels, just shinier!

[jeffg1010]

Saw this one today about 2 miles from my house. Must be a cool neighborhood too, in the neighbors carport, there is a copper Longbed fleet project in progress. You can barely see the quarter in the background.

[sir_talk_alot]

nice!

[DanSan c 10]

Now look what you started I am looking forward to the new sightings. Good work

[sir_talk_alot]

check out this awesome c20 'burb, this guy has it forsale on craigslist, its in awesome shape, looks slightly lifted. figured you burb guys would like it, first time ive seen one in person.

[BossHogg69]

haha, sir_talk_alot is posting all the good ones that are by my house! There's also a white, '69 lwb c20 Chevy running around here too that I see all the time, maybe I can catch it, since Mike already got most of the good ones!

[jeffg1010]

Before this thread appeared, I saw this one every Tuesday and Thursday at his business. But, I havent seen it the past few times I've been by there. Well, today it showed up again.

[cam.man67]

Geez, I wish I had a camera on me... there's a contractor who has a beat '71 C10 that I see every few days in Frederick, and just saw a '68 flatbed drive past my farm while I was out in the field yesterday.

hah, sorry adam, im stealing all the trucks in your area! i go to Pulaski techs aviation school and work at barrett aviation right behind walmart at the airport, and on my lunch break i went to walmart and spotted it. And Saweet flatblack slant nose!

[lil hoodlum]

This guy works at a local body shop. He has owned this beauty for at least 15 years, the same amount of time I've owned my truck. The pictures don't do it justice. It is just plain beautiful.

There are about a dozen or so trucks in my area that a daily drivers. I'll make it a point to get some pics.

[yfs200p]

Here is a '71 Custom/20 that belongs to the guy at the shop next to mine. I talked to him once and he said this is the only car he has. It's a really clean truck, notice his handmade canoe on top, pretty cool. Don't think he's a board member.

Man... Mooresville is CRAWLIN' with old trucks. This thread is gonna get me in a wreck. haha. I saw 6 trucks today. Got pics of 3. Well, 2 1/2... OK... really only got good pics of 1. But, I'll share anyway.

This '68, I'd like to have. It's got a ton of potential. He must be drivin' it some, because (even though it doesn't have a tag on it) It's moved everytime I pass by here. (He's got about 4 other 67-72's in the lot next door)





This 2wd SWB passed me when I was at a stoplight. I was going his way, and I got behind him, but never got closer than about 8 cars before I turned off. It is a lovely combination of ochre, gray primer, rust, and white.

I know the picture is barely worth postin, but I'll share it anyway...




I was getting wings at a local restaurant (Lancaster's for any local guys) and this one was outside. This one was SWEET! So, my Burb stopped traffic in the parking lot so I could get a couple pics...

[shawno72]

Nice effort!! It's kinda fun isn't it?
