What Did Someone Say About Your Truck Today? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**LostMy65** · 05-23-2016, 07:54 PM

We got a 'What did you do to. and a' What did you do With ' your truck today.
.
This is a "What Did Someone Say About Your Truck Today?"
.
It seems like every time I take my truck out, someone says or asks something about it.
Sometimes it's just a thumbs up.
Today, when I went to the recycle place, an old guy - around 80 asked what year it was, and then looked it over nodding with appreciation.
Then when I got to the dumps, a younger guy asked what year was it.
These trucks do turn heads.
What do people say or ask about your truck?

Chknlyps2 · 05-23-2016, 08:58 PM

Went up to my bosses house today to fax some things, our equipment yard and my office is on the next 20 acres over, and the guy painting said "You ready to sell me your truck yet?

Went to Sears, some guy said "How much".

Lol.

66Gilbert · 05-25-2016, 02:11 PM

Cruising by the front entrance of the local Walmart a gentleman said Wow!! Now that's something that you don't see everyday a sixties 4 door Chevy truck. He walked over when I parked and said he had never seen one before and asked if I had made it and if it was for sale. I said it is not for sale. He then asked how much I had to have to consider selling it. My response was it is still not for sale as it took my 29 years to find it and if I did have a price it would be ridiculously high.

66gilbert. Are you near the Verde Valley? There is a truck exactly like yours here, same color.

65chevysub · 05-28-2016, 09:34 PM

I get lots of "Thumbs Up" for my 65 Suburban, even as it sits now with tissue thin rattle can primer on it. Back in the 90's, I turned down 2 $12000.00 and a $15000.00 cash offer for it when my wife was driving it to Sedona for work.
