Another Ad Using a 67-72 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

mrein3 · 05-01-2006, 09:20 PM

I can't tell you anything about Boyt hunting jackets, shirts, and sweaters, but I can tell you about the truck they are sitting on in the ad.

Like the ad says,
'capture the true spirit of every American outdoorsman'.

Notice what truck they use in the background of an ad trying to show their stuff is
'Constructed of the finest materials available'

Sorry about the resolution of the scan, I really had to reduce it to fit it under 100k.

BTW, this is the inside, back cover of the summer 2006 Pheasants Forever Journal.

I like that ad. Double-barrel shotguns, a 4x4 Chevy and a dog, all out in a field. Just too cool IMO..

that is a pretty sweet ad, do you have a better scan that you could email me? I would like to save a copy on my harddrive.

You've never seen a bowed tailgate until you've seen my tailgate.

That's my truck just about every weekend!!!!!

And hey y'all wanna see a bowed tailgate, mine's had pipe slam down on it, an engine hanging on a wrecker boom swing against it, and a whole lot of other abuse. There's a 2" gap right in the middle of it between it and the bed when it's closed.

Yup that's my tailgate too.My brother dropped a 500 caddy motor on his and bent that sucker so bad he closed it,put the spare tire on the bumper,and backed it into a tree to straighten it out enough to get it to latch

What a redneck

reminds me of some redneck stuff we've done. After we dropped a complete Olds 350 and tranny on my buddy's tailgate (oops) and bowed that thing in horridly (we did get it to latch enough to get us and three motors down the highway in his Furd halfton) and dropped all the motors off (that was a safer, cleaner operation, lemme tell ya) we took his tailgate off, put it on a couple blocks of wood, stuck a block of wood on top, and had at her with the ole' John Deere's bucket, til we got her straight enough to work. THAT'S how you repair a tailgate, haha.

My dad used to have an old beater buick which he and his brother in law had turned into a construction wagon. He retells this story of how it had a big dent in the front bumper after someone bumbed a pole with it. He was towing the buick with a tow strap, and the person riding in the buick managed to keep tension on the strap right up until just before they reached their destination. The towing car accelerated and *BAM*, the tow rope went taught. As he tells it, it straightened out the bumper perfectly!
