Hey Cheese, I know exactly where Shallowater is. I grew up in a little town Northwest of you. Ever heard of Muleshoe????

West Texas is a big reason my truck is so clean!

Mr.Chevy4x4 · 09-25-2009, 11:03 PM

That's cool that you know about spudnuts! That place hasn't been open for years! My brother worked there when we were in hign school. I still get back that way a couple of time a year. When we came through the weekend of the 4th of July there was a nice '66 short fleet on the side of 84 in Littlefield.

I think when people see trucks like this sitting around places that you havent seen on this website they need to run over and slide a paper somewhere with the website so they can all come and join us

Here is my new truck: Red Rocker. Built by Hills Hot Rods for Travis Noack of Streettrucks (Truckin at the time). Travis had sold the truck, and I just picked it up from the guy he sold it to.

AirMale · 09-28-2009, 06:51 PM

Lucky bastard

ratty 46 · 09-28-2009, 07:48 PM

Now that is a kick ass C10. I wish ......

Tell me about it. That is a beautiful truck. I remember following that build a couple years ago. Lucky fella, take care of that one.

Max-did you get a good deal?
(nice way of asking how much did you pay)

i was wondering the same thing

*BGRAFX* · 09-28-2009, 10:28 PM

I'm sure I'm not the only person in the truck community wondering how much a full custom from Hills cost...
Just wonder how much Travis got Red Rocker done for vs what Max paid as the 3rd owner....
I remember when it was just an old blue heap. I used to follow every build.

maxh · 09-29-2009, 12:44 PM

Travis got the truck built 5 years ago, and it was featured at SEMA 04. He kept the truck until early 07 i believe, then it was sold to an audio shop in Virginia. February 09 I decided to start looking for the truck thinking i might be able to "steal it" (price wise not literally) due to the economy. I found the owner thanks to a reply on mautofied. The owner was quite shocked at me looking for the truck. I asked if he wanted to sell it and he replied "sure for $35,000." I was 18 and that just wouldnt work. I told him to let me know if he ever actually needed to sell the truck to please let me know.
About a month ago now, he called again with a lower price. I told him the most i could pay and he took it! I talked to my boss at the GM dealer i work for and he approved buying it and in house financing it. 2 weeks later i was at the US Canadian border picking up my dream truck.
I know this truck has been a dream for alot of square body guys, and i know im very lucky to own it especially at my age. This is the truck that got me into the truck scene. I followed the build and read every article about it. I even went to visit Hills Hot Rods when i was 14 with my dad (drives long haul truck) because i had seen this truck in the magazines. You can ask CHEESE, he was there. I never thought i would own it, but now i do.
I can assure you all that Red Rocker will be taken care of. It gets parked inside everynight in a heated alarmed shop with about 20 other show cars. The plan is to drive it and show it up here where nobody has seen it yet, atleast not in person. I will not be taking any of the credit for it. Hills Hot Rods built this truck; their name is on the back window once again. It was Travis Noacks project, and it will always be that way.

maxh · 09-29-2009, 01:10 PM

Oh ya. Im not going to tell you what i paid, but i didnt pay enough. Travis probably didnt pay enough to have it built either considering his position and all the sponsers. For an average joe to walk in and have it built, i would assume the bill would be in the $70,000 range.

JohnC · 09-29-2009, 01:52 PM

It's great to hear your background, and plans for the truck. Now on to the info on all those cars in the pics.

Glad RedRokr went to a great home, and I really dig the license plate!

STOCKISH · 09-29-2009, 02:03 PM

Cool story and congrats on the purchase. Glad to have you on the forum with us.
