I'm gonna try and go to the same rod run where I found my truck last year in tenn this year to if my wife can feel like going to the show ,, for an update on anyone that remember's me building this truck over the spring it's doing great !! love it ! , thank's to a member and a few friends I have enough part's to put a full gauge 67 dash panel in my truck , even have a super clean 67 gauge original dash panel , I did not want to use a 68 up one cause they don't have the choke cable provision's !!!
anyway gonna try and look on here more often my head has been spinning around in circle's lately !!!!

you know I plan on dulling down my paint on the 67 by slowly driving it and washing it over the next few year's ! it may take a while but I'm patient !
(LOL)

Sorry to hear about your wife hope she makes a fast and full recovery,,

Also seen that truck can't believe what its bringing ...ebay is a place where a lot of classics are bid far beyond thier worth in my opinion. I put my truck on there it only went to $6000 ...go figure.

I've learned with ebay it's like buying a lottery ticket and scratching it !
some thing's sell better at time's than other's and with vehicle's the key is to get two ebayer's that really want it fighting for it !!

myself I don't think the blue truck is worth more than 4K it is a very nice original truck but still has some rust that will have to be repaired , nice though

myfirstcarwasa73trk · 11-15-2007, 10:59 AM

well I think you have the right idea on letting it dull over time lol

BB72CHEVKT · 11-15-2007, 11:04 AM

Sorry to hear about your wife. Try your best to keep your head up. I have a 6 year old beautiful daughter who is a cancer survivor. She has been cancer free for over 4 years! So your wife can beat it.

Beautiful truck!

Sorry to hear about your wife, we're keeping her in our thoughts and prayers. Hang in there.

The truck looks beautiful and congrats on being able to pull all original pieces for the guage cluster back together.

My thoughts and prayers with you and your wife. My wife went through chemo 5 years ago, and she feels better than ever today. Hang in there.
Your truck is a beauty by the way.
