Re: Project "Bickle" 1948 1/2 ton 4.3 4l60e

while we were driving back to his place to drop him off I told him about that unreliable guy who fell through on my forklift. made a deal and didnt honor it. I wrote his name in my book and then crossed it out (anyone get that reference?)

greg said a guy around the corner had a ton, so he called him. the guy said he might have something for me and spent an hour walking me around. first we saw his 54 chevy gasser, anyone recognize the shackles?



then some big girls




a one ton, this was special because it has a brownie box, over and under!




and a 33? chevrolet.



and a 46



he had a pantload more than that, more trucks like a 72 gmc astro day cab, another astro with a sleeper cab and manure bed which I am sure was some kind of oversight in purchase, 14 forklitfs, tractor/loaders, and even a skid steer. Saab, old plymouth, international scout, taurus sho, mazda 4x4, this looked like my collection I never had.

after all our walking I hit him for the numbers, and he said sorry, nothing for sale. you know, the opposite of what he said on the phone. no big deal, nice guy and maybe he will call with something someday.
