minibike · 10-01-2002, 07:37 PM

It might be good for swapping parts, and helping out, but I live in Milton (Lafayette). Also, it will be a while before I'm ready to show...

**Bowtie468** · 10-01-2002, 09:30 PM

Sure, that sounds great ! Just like minibike said, I'm also a long ways from attending a meet with my truck. But i would still attend to meet everyone and their rides! Let us know!!

**Bowtie468** · 10-01-2002, 09:34 PM

Here's three more members that i thought of: HuggerCST , loflya and phase_ one

lotik · 10-01-2002, 10:02 PM

i am in walker. i would be willing to meet as soon as i get the truck up and running.

>X< · 10-01-2002, 10:18 PM

hey lotik, where about in walker? i say i live in baton rouge but i really live in Greenwell Springs, prob under 15 miles from you, i know a couple people in walker with 67-72's, just talked to a guy tonight, he;s selling his, a blue longbed on he road next to Live Oak high, i might be out that way sunday to look at a 67 that a guy wants me to paint

lotik · 10-01-2002, 10:26 PM

i went to highschool at Live Oak High. i have seen that blue longbed as well as an orange/white fleet. you do paint work? i do a little bit on the side, as well as body work. i am doing all the work to mine myself. i live in the live oak school district but my address is walker. they have meets at the winn dixie in walker every saturday night 6-9pm. this is for any older vehicle. lots of hot rods.

>X< · 10-01-2002, 10:30 PM

i am learning body work, gettin pretty good at it. i've always heard that that show is awesome, but i never make it out there, always go t Miss Goldies, you know the roiad by that cabinet shop off of Range,theres at least 5 junk 67-72's on that road

GMC2 · 10-01-2002, 10:59 PM

That would be a good idea,I live in Gonzales.

>X< · 10-02-2002, 03:16 PM

well i'm gonna try to get a acouple people around here thati see sometimes, theres a red 72 ith nascar rims and tires and a small aluminum spoiler that looks pretty goof that i havent met yet and a guy with an original green 68 step, but everyone et anybody you know and then we'll try to get a date set or soemthng

chewed 71'er · 10-02-2002, 08:46 PM

Hey southern compadres, you might get a little 'weather' coming your way. Unless you're far enough inland where hurricanes can't reach. Don't want any of our truckers having to drive out of the gulf of Mexico.

minibike · 10-03-2002, 11:07 AM

It seamed like a good day to visit my friends in Houston. We'll go back and see what damage is done tomorrow.

HuggerCST · 10-03-2002, 12:33 PM

Hey, I'm ready. My truck's not, but it's getting there. I've got family in Baton Rouge, so I'm sure that I could be there for a meeting, or show every now and then. If nothing else, people could bring progress pics of there trucks. It would also be a great way to locate and swap parts, and keep everyone motivated on there trucks.

Luziman · 10-03-2002, 04:04 PM

Luziman here. I don't mind a club, but my truck is nowheres worth showing to anybody. I couldn't even make it to the spillway with my truck, much less to Baton Rouge. It's a long slow project/daily driver, sometimes I barely keep it running, although I am building a mild 433 for it. And I did a front disc conversion on it last year. But I'm afraid it will probably be ugly for years. Maybe to share ideas, parts, labor, ???. OK, I'm in. Let me know.

LAP · 10-03-2002, 04:17 PM

I'm interested. I just settled with the insurance company on my 4x4 SWB. They gave me $4,000 and I get to keep it. We need to link up at the Walker meet one night.

Any of y'all noticed the red Cheyenne Super on the road by Live Oak High?
Looks all orginal and the guy still drives it.

>X< · 10-03-2002, 05:21 PM

when i said "SHOW" i didnt mean hat they hadto be show trucks, hell, mine loks ten times better in my avatar, the squeaking is louder than the exhaust and right now it has no front after rad. suport, orange hood, primed fenders, pretty ugly, i'm gonnapost a pic later, but everyone is welcome, i might pull my 72 3/4 ton on a trailer just to have more trucks there, i'll letall know. by teh way, this hurricane sucked, barely any wind, we picked up everything for nothin, but at least my house didnt get crushed

LAP · 10-03-2002, 07:25 PM

My wife thinks I sick because I like them all, beaters or show. Hands down I think 67-72's are the best looking truck ever built!

jomatt20 · 01-23-2015, 01:01 AM

I was wondering where all the Cajuns were! Sounds like a good idea, I'm just on the southwest side of la and like the other guys I have a while before completion!

68shortwide · 01-23-2015, 01:12 AM
