You should come up to the Keep On Rollin show on Saturday and hang out...its the coolest show around and there will be alot of sweet old Chevy's up there! If you make it up there come by my pinstriping booth and say hi!

I love seeing trucks in person that I've seen online... or vise versa. Wish I could have talked with you. Make sure to bring it to Brigham City in September for the Peach Days show. I'll try to catch you then.

Nevermind... I found the site for it. I'd like to make it up, looks like a good show, but I also need to make some good progress on my panel truck... decisions.

So I posted my truck on ebay because we want an old blazer or suburban to haul my new daughter to the car shows with us when I'm pinstriping but I'm already having sellers remorse! I don't really need to sell the truck to get something else but I don't really need two hot rods either...what the heck should I do??? I could still take it off ebay before there are bids on it but I am torn about it and having stress...has any of the other board buddies gone through this before?

I would say, keep the truck at least until after you get the blazer/burban done. This way you have something to roll in while you hunt/build the next one. I just did this with my '68 project. My "6 month" project is going on 1.5 years and still has a ways to go. I just bought a decent '65 driver that I can roll in until the '68 is on the road, then it will get its turn.

My .02 worth.

BTW, nice truck!!!

I have two... and my wife hates both of them! Only way to get more would be if its the 69 454 Chevelle she wants... yeah that aint gonna happen with my current pay rate!

Still love this truck, I say don't sell it if you don't have to but keep it at least till the other truck is done. My 64 will probably go on down the road after the panel truck is done... or if my wife gets her way sooner!

I just got an email from the guy that bought the "Forest Service" truck from me about 3 years ago and he said he has airbagged it now and it will be featured in an upcoming issue of classic trucks! Thats pretty cool! I didn't think I would ever see it again!
