My first Paw-Paw truck....

[fastnotch89]

I sold my 72 cheyenne on Monday and found this one on Tuesday, looks like a decent truck, i think im gonna slam it and just throw something with a big lip on the rear.... i dig the color and im gonna leave it but change the grill to a 71-72

[doubleb's69]

Wow! I'd cruise it like it is with a static drop.

Not doing bad if you sell one Monday and get another Tuesday!!!

[fastnotch89]

[sdailey]

Nice!!!

Did it come from Murphy? I was watching it on Craigslist.

[fastnotch89]

Yes, it was like a 9 hour round trip for me, Charles has another blue 307 long bed up there for $3,000

[Tinkermc]

looks like a very nice place to start

[Fldawg]

I've said this a thousand times, why can't i find trucks like this

[FRENCHBLUE72]

Good looking truck for sure...

What the heck is a "paw paw"? Is that redneck for "father" or something? Lol

what, no grandfathers in Canada?? (I think that's what he meant by paw paw, i.e. a gramps truck) Which it does look like - and it's way cool.

The only time I've ever heard someone say "paw" in reference to a father was on Little house on the prairie. Hahaha.

That's a sweet find. I guess you realize when you swap to a 71/72 grille you'll have two bow ties or holes in the hood since you don't want to paint

It's a native fruit bearing tree found in the Eastern US. The Native Americans and early settlers harvested them,but they are an all but forgotten food source these days:

Folksy types are known to call their mothers and fathers Ma and Pa. Grandfathers often get referred to as Paw Paw. The "w" is added to assure it's pronounced correctly since,I think,Papa is also used for father and/or grandfather. The "w" may also be used to accentuate the southern drawl

He may not care Tim, as it appears there are holes in the door

It didnt even cross my mind about the bow ties, but i might just take the one off the hood, or just keep them both and be proud of it being a chevy haha

[BigDaddyV]

Im almost green with envy...... LOL
I love it and would deff roll with a static drop on the old steelies.

[tommys72]

I love that truck, just change the front end, take the bow tie off the hood, and roll it how it is...
