I got my truck back yesterday. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

The Terminator · 04-23-2004, 06:48 AM

Back in October, I traded my 68 Chevy for a Ninja motorcycle, I don't know why I did it. I never really liked the bike. Well, after my neighbor kept it through the winter, bought it a new battery, alternator, and voltage regulator, we traded back.

I missed my truck, and I hated looking at it, sitting over there in his yard. He was constantly washing, waxing, and keeping it up very well. I am glad to have it back home. Best -

Lucky to get it back!

What a break, some of them never make it back..

Great to hear! What size and year was the Ninja (just curious)

The Terminator · 04-24-2004, 03:43 AM

The Ninja was a '90 model Z600. It was a great bike really, but I didn't like the riding position. I am more of a cruiser type rider. I see that you have a KZ 1000, my type of bike. I put about 300 miles on the bike over the winter.

Congrats on getting her back. I bet that was a good feeling. I know I would like to have gotten my 68 back.

I make it a point of always selling my trucks to people I don't know , who live far away ! I hate seeing them again

Always wish I had kept it when that happens

I'm glad for you!

When I was in my early 20's and not too bright, I traded in my 1974 Chevy 1/2 ton SWB Cheyenne Super 4X4 W/ a PTO winch for $2,000 trade in towards a new Toyota 4X4 Pickup.
I had just spent more than $2,000 on the heads!
Buy was I stupid! I don't have the Toyota anymore either.
Ive been kicking myself every since! My old buddies kick me too!
