Yes I got #50 as of tonite,a friend of mine called me and told me about a truck in the local paper,so at 10:00 tonite I called and ask if I could come and look at it,and now it's mine.
1968 lwb 350/3 on tree,gauges and some good sheet metal.
It had been setting there for a yr. and get this it still had ins.and tag on it.
Several guys had called but know one had put a deposit on it so it was all mine after that.
Man I love these trucks.hehe

Congrats on your new acquisition. There's lots of 'em here in the Charlotte area. I picked up a 66 - 1 owner for very little. Had the original sales invoice still in the glove box: $2000 and he got $150 trade in allowance on a '54 C10. When I went to pick it up, he was driving a 98 S10.

Look forward to seeing some of your rigs at the Food Lion Auto Fair this fall.
