Re: Post Your 73-80 Truck Pics

Here's Mini-Monster, I've had it since October - rebuild the engine (in my living room), rewired the engine bay and lots of the dash, did some interior work, and just two days ago installed these tires:

















By the way, that Lincoln Town Car with the hood scoop and push bars in the background of the first pic is also mine

Man that sucks! Do you think the cops will allow you to have some private time with the guys who stole it and wrecked it?

Very nice looking truck, hopefully whoever stole it and wrapped it around what appears to be a pole of somekind, got hurt good enough to teach them a lesson!

Nothing a litle frame, cab, and front clip cant fix. Are you going to fix her of find another and take all that good/left.

For that truck you diserve a one on one with the guy that stole that.

Re: Post Your 73-80 Truck Pics

Here are my three girls:

77 GMC C15 stepside on the left, 80 GMC K25 Longbox in the middle (project truck), and 96 GMC K1500 on the right (daily driver). Yeah, I know, I have a thing for GMC :P

Tiggers, if you want to start a new project, I don't really need three trucks, and I happen to really like both my 80 and 96, if you catch my drift

PM me if you want more details, I'm only an hour and a half North of you on Highway 21

Re: Post Your 73-80 Truck Pics

Tiggerstoy: I just stopped in here because I an considering buying a pristine '74. That story is pretty grim and I wish I hadn't read it. I had a guy wreck my car about 5 years ago and I got a call from the D.A. asking if I wanted to pursue " restitution". I thought " Oh sure,the guy had no license and was an " illegal alien" but I filled out the form anyway. They made the guy pay me $100 a month after he got out of jail under the threat of being sent back. He dragged his feet and missed nearly all court dates etc. but eventually paid me off. Pretty rare I'm sure but worth a try if your state has such a thing going.- Brian

OK,I didn't notice that. I didn't have insurance either.It's just a pretty cool law here in California enabling one to recover damages from the perpetrator of a crime.
