You may be a redneck if... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**special-K** · 07-13-2008, 08:29 PM

...a hostile takeover means buying out all of a guy`s 67-72 truck parts

.

Some may spend thier weekends sitting in a/c or by a pool,going to the beach,hanging out at some kind of national board meet,buying little red `54 Chevy cars for thier wives,but....you just can`t beat waking up early on a 90+ degree July Sunday to be picked up and hauled up the road an hour or so to go scrounge and load a buncha 35 or more year old truck parts.Screw breakfast and all the niceties that others waste thier time on.When there`s a pile of parts to be hauled there`s just no time for such nonsense.Leave the newborn baby and wife behind,there`s a job to be done and a man`s gotta do what a man`s gotta do.Now don`t y`all be some jealous.Your time will come to stumble on such treasure and such a load of gems from being scrapped into something as foolish as a 40mpg econobox or other worthless consumer product.We can`t let China get it`s hands on this stuff...IT`S ALL OURS and we`re keepin`it right here in the good ole U S of A!!

Beautiful,huh?

My work is done...SEEYA!

lowriden58 · 07-13-2008, 08:36 PM

did you sell all that or buy it? looks like that trucks leaving your place

**special-K** · 07-13-2008, 08:46 PM

I just got dropped off.I hooked my buddy up with this stuff and gave him a hand with it.I`m sure he`ll chime in here once he knows I posted this.Huh..."Chime in",I`m a regular internet dude now.

I got a bunch of stuff this spring.Looks like I`ll have some competition for being the biggest redneck.It`s a close call.I may need to do the mullet thing to get the edge on him.

It`s like pennies from heaven.Them things`ll mess up your mind when they hit your head from way up there.

I`m just trying to make the board meet bunch jealous,that`s all.I`m evil like that.

Which is also another redneck pastime. I am glad to se somebody rescueing the poor defensless old trucks from the scrappers. Good ole American iron needs to be rebuilt, not crushed.

PRICELESS!!!

If that doesn't have Fred Sanford written all over it nothing does.

Thats right, gotta have chew stains and bar oil on your shirt or ya aint doin it right.

I am one jealous man. Wish I could find all those parts I might be able to finish one truck. That is one good looking load of parts.

68shortstep · 07-13-2008, 09:14 PM

I always wondered what a nest of infant '67 - 72 trucks, just about ready to hatch, would look like, if I could ever find one.

Now I know what to look for.
.........................................................................

I once found a nest of infant redneck condos, before they were born------------

odog · 07-13-2008, 09:28 PM

Man that would be my vacation spot, do you know if they have any vacancies?

**Hart_Rod** · 07-13-2008, 10:02 PM

Looks like the mother lode!!

**special-K** · 07-13-2008, 10:32 PM

Yeah,there`s more to get.We were saving room for rears and f/e parts on the rear deck,then stack on top.Ran out of time before space.There`s even a pair of Cragar S/Ss under the bed.
That redneck condo even has a "C"-ment pond.Ain`t that right,Jethro?

semperfidoordie · 07-13-2008, 10:36 PM

I don't think that's a condo Tim...that's a mansion in my parts

*gn4u2c2* · 07-14-2008, 03:18 AM

Tim - rest up old man could not have done it without you thanks !!!maybe one night or next week we will get the rest if your up to it. oh and I decided if you make one more run with me you can paint your name on the passenger door of my truck.

**special-K** · 07-14-2008, 07:38 AM
