Re: ChevyLand ‘The Truck Photo Tour’
I just got off the phone with Mr. Rodgers
He was all concerned (confused) ‘I’m worried about powder coating the wheels ‘ Wait a minute Remember our deal? We only restore Cheyenne Supers to original specifications (period) Back to 1972, did they powder coat the wheels ? ‘No’ Did you powder coat the frame on this truck ? ‘No’ So , go find some spray paint And Make sure it is white |

Re: ChevyLand ‘The Truck Photo Tour’
Life is good
Yesterday when I woke up, , my wife asked ‘What are you doing today’ ? I replied, ‘Playing with trucks’ ! Midway through the day I called to check in ‘How’s your day going honey’? ‘Great, Making the food for Super Bowl, tomorrow’ (She’s been a Bucs fan for 40 years) ‘Do you need me to bring you anything’? ‘No, I’m good’ ‘Great, I’ll be home late tonight’ ‘Eric, I can here it in your voice, where are you going’? ‘To pick up a truck’ ‘Okay, be careful, see you when you get home’ Now, that is as good as it gets Life Is Great..............! https://youtu.be/0MvILFz1FHk |

Re: ChevyLand ‘The Truck Photo Tour’
I have no idea what you do for a living, but whatever it is you must have enough room for all the trucks you bring home that its perfectly fine with your wife. And she's obviously very happy with you and life in general from the comments you posted. So I just have to say congrats on being a good partner to her. Seems to be a bit of a lost art these days.

Re: ChevyLand ‘The Truck Photo Tour’
That brown K20 is a cool truck Eric. Love the old 80’s bias plys. Do you still have that light yellow K10 short super you got from Kevin? I’ve wondered a few times in the past what happened to that one. I saw it a week or two after kevin got it when I got my K20 from him.

Re: ChevyLand ‘The Truck Photo Tour’
Mister Rodgers really wanted to restore it.
He doesn’t get rattled very easily https://youtu.be/aaa2MWXZL-w When I told him I sold it It was the first time I heard him swear I can’t remember it it was ‘Gosh darn it’ Or ‘Oh Fudge’ |

Re: ChevyLand ‘The Truck Photo Tour’
I wish I had pictures of the guy I sold it to
We made a deal.. He was to fly into Oakland from LA I loaded the truck on my trailer to meet him in the parking lot at the airport The dude walked up In a nice slacks, shirt, dress shoes And A man purse He was nervous I was going to screw him So he wanted to go to DMV to do the transaction He jumped in and I drove him to Oakland DMV By the time we got there he was starting to change his mind And wanted it for less money Nope So I said, see you later I think I drove him to a mall or something Then he rechanged his mind I was getting tired of It so I said Show me the money Most of it came out of the man purse Then he started digging into his socks And some holster thing he Had under his shirt. All green We drove back to DMV Learned about his family And he was going to frame off the truck This was before COVID I’ll never forget it, we waited in line for a while Got to the counter and were helped by most beautiful black woman I have ever seen in my life But she was wearing surgical gloves. Asked her why, but she wasn’t very nice And just collected his money By the time we were done There was a tow truck outside I rolled the truck off the trailer Told man purse man to drive it over to the tow truck Said he couldn’t Because he didn’t know how to drive a stick shift So I did Never heard from him again |
