how did you find this board? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*rickspickuppart* · 12-23-2003, 12:00 AM

I was wondering how everyone got here?

I was linked to josh's site from ours for a couple years prior and did the "hey whats this link do?" thing and found it.

Someone had posted a link to this board from the Camaro site I frequent. Ended up getting hooked on the trucks and now I have one. All because of this board. I never had really paid attention to trucks before. Now I can't stay away!!

lukecp · 12-23-2003, 12:13 AM

I did a search for 67-72 Chevy Trucks and found this site....didn't see the link to the board for a while though....i proably visited 3 times over 6 months or so before i found the board and joined

2-1/2 years and 5000 posts later i am still here

72moneypit · 12-23-2003, 12:18 AM

Right after I bought my truck, I did a search on "72 Chevy Trucks" and found the site. I always wondered if I'd have found it if I'd bought a 68-71 truck instead...

GM72K10 · 12-23-2003, 12:19 AM

Same as Yellow 72 Custom. Was recovering from minor surgery and had a LOT of time on my hands.
GREAT SITE

I also did a search for 67-72 Chevy trucks, and I saw a result for this site and clicked on it. I visited for about a month before I joined.

OldSkool71 · 12-23-2003, 02:46 AM

I was searching for info on 67-72 trucks and found this site. Didn't register right away but was instantly hooked. Then I found my rig and the rest is history.

1969 GMC · 12-23-2003, 02:51 AM

I found this site a long time ago, kinda poked around, but kept on going (I had my heart set on getting an International 4x4). When I bought my truck off eBay, I came back...and stayed.
