Pics of my Trucks
I put new BFG's on the 77 Bonanza and cleaned off the excess dirt . I also installed my cheap original mirrors I bought on Ebay . The old truck looks better now . I decided to take a couple of photos of the 78 Cheyenne , 87 3/4 ton Chevrolet , and ,believe it or not my favorite truck , the 77 Bonanza . What do you think ?

Re: Pics of my Trucks
Thanks guys . The blue truck is my favorite . Ride and drive cant be beat . A/C is all new , tilt , tach , pretty clean factory interior . I have to confess that the other side of the truck doesnt look so good though . When I bought it it had been ran down a gaurdrail by the Original owner . I put the lower valence , front fender ,and rear quarter on it from another truck . My wife hates the truck . I am gathering parts and trim so I can get it painted . The blue on it is the original paint and I hope the new paint is about the same color . It is Mariner Blue . I will have them use the factory paint code . the truck is pretty clean since it had a camper and was owned by an elderly gentleman . Frank

Re: Pics of my Trucks
Even if the entire driver's side was caved in, it would still look better than my '81!!
I would be proud as hell to drive any one of those three anywhere!!

Re: Pics of my Trucks
Frank, does she hate the other two? By the way i have always wondered what do you use them all for? is the blue your daily? the buckskin your "sunday driver" and the 87 is /.
after looking at you list i just am wondering what you use them all for you sure got alot of vehicals and GM!!! heck and if they are all "nice weather drivers" i can't say i would blame you. they all look really nice.

Re: Pics of my Trucks
I will get some more pics of the ugly side in the next couple days .
As to what they are used for ......I dont know except that the blue one gets driven most . That being said I probably dont put that many miles a year on them . I drive the 2005 2500 service truck about 60 thousand miles a year . Frank
