Sold the White '67 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I was driving the '39 Ford Coupe last week and I stopped at the local convenience store to get a Coke. This guy comes over to me as I am getting into the car and asks me what it is worth. I told him 27.5. We get to talking and he asks if I have any other cars. I said yes and told him what I had. He asks if any of them are for sale I said all of them except for the '36 Ford Coupe. He ends up following me home and falls in love with the White '67 Shortie. Long story short he came back today and paid me for it.... I have owned it since 2004.

'67 Short Fleet, 454/TH400, 3.07 open rear with lots of cruisin under her belt.

Bye White truck..

If we give her enough wine she'll forget all about it...

Thanks Keith. It was great meeting you guys too. I will probably put the money into the '70 SWB with the '67 front clip and the TPI/700r4 setup.

It's hard to congratulate you for getting rid of something nice. But,here we go...Congratulations!!! The buyer must have made you happy. That's all that matters. I never ask how much.

teeitup · 07-05-2011, 06:46 AM

That sure was a nice truck Leon. Congrats on your sale, now go out and find another one

If you saw the trucks side by side you would know that that is not a good comparison. Here is part of the write up that I was going to put on craigslist.

While this is a pretty nice pickup it is a driver, not a show truck. Everything works on the truck. It has a new paint job but it has some imperfections. This truck is a hoot to drive and I have taken a few 300 - 500 mile trips in it with no problems.

Another important point is that mine sold...

Oh, and another important point is that I had $4000 in it.

Lol, another difference is you actually sold it for more than you paid. I'm just trying not to take too much of a loss. But it's all good. I'll find it a good home eventually. And I already have another one to suck my wallet dry.
