Re: Do you have a 1972 Plaid Pickup?

I thought I had this member's name, but when I later contacted him to get this guy who did the work's info, it turned out I had kept the wrong member's name. Their names were similar. I contacted Cheyenne10 in OR or WA by mistake. This was when I first joined the site in 11/04 and was unfamiliar with using computers. I bought the truck in July that year. So I lost the trail of ownership and hopes of fact finding on the truck. Therefore, I never pushed the truck's originality in threads like this. I didn't have what we all know is needed to bare the burden of truth. All I have is hear-say that I know is true. This guy contacted me and gave the detailed story. So I was fine, and so was my friend who bought it (a collector) with it just being a really cool K/20. The truck has a KE2 VIN, regardless. The previous owner did not take good care of it, it needed a lot of mechanical work and he dinged it up, had mismatched mirrors, wheels and tires, and broken leafs. But he paid good money. On the title it showed it originally had a lien for $11 grand. This would have been at least a couple years prior to '04. I paid half that for it and rebuilt the mechanics to have a nice driving truck with cosmetic wear
