Can we get a name up in here? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Low87 · 01-13-2003, 04:27 PM

I've been IMing with Toeshanks and getting tired of referring to 'here' as 'the other board' or the '67-72' (????) board. racedvl, how do we go about naming this place? I once heard a reference to our style trucks that I rather liked, and might go well here.
"Modern Classics"
Just a thought, give me more, or let's at least officially name the board "the other board".

LOHRTBT · 01-13-2003, 04:30 PM

HOw bout the "Dats Phat Yo!" board for enthusiasts??? hahahahahah

BigRed · 01-13-2003, 04:44 PM

I just call it the 67-72 board, but that doesn't sound appropriate. Nothing else would though, because that's it's name.

LOHRTBT · 01-13-2003, 04:46 PM

yes, but here inlies the problem....we dont own 62-72's....although we have a board for ours....so why not give it a "name" so to speak.

BigRed · 01-13-2003, 04:55 PM

Guess "Modern Classics" sounds good to me. Can't think of anything better.

Tom · 01-13-2003, 05:19 PM

old trucks united

J-Spec C10 · 01-13-2003, 05:32 PM

what about "the best forum to use when finding information about 73-87 chevy trucks"

What?...too long?

Modern Classics works 4 me.

PHOENIX · 01-13-2003, 05:56 PM

How about "Eddie & Friends Truck Forum"? (I doubt thats gonna catch on).

I think I like Old Trucks United (O.T.U.) better then Modern Classics. Something about the phrase "Modern Classic" doesn't make me think of these trucks. Heres one we can all remember:
Trucks Old Enough or T.O.E.

(j/k)

Edit:
Trucks of Excellence (T.O.E.)

LOHRTBT · 01-13-2003, 06:34 PM

BWAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAH!! T.O.E!!!

That is it man!! Trucks Of Excellence is cool!!... Toes Old and Evil!! hahahah

SCOTI · 01-13-2003, 06:34 PM

Hey.... some of us do own both!!

J-Spec C10 · 01-13-2003, 07:57 PM

T.O.E. HAHA !!

Trucks Orbiting Earth (we so fast!!!)

**swervin ervin** · 01-13-2003, 08:01 PM

LOHRTBT · 01-13-2003, 08:32 PM

TODDS 72 · 01-13-2003, 09:33 PM
