Nice clean truck!

It does like to have money spent on it because I put a lot of money in to it. I guess it is a Movie Star Diva.:chevy::lol:

Shall I delete it? I was going to do a COMPLETE list with links and images in one post as time allows...
But as I am doing this maybe I should make a separate post and just have my post point to it.
Just trying to help.

Yeah, That is pretty darn RAD isnt it! Wonder what transmission would allow the reverse gears to get up to speed? Love to see the interior!

Love the after shot! The old blue does NOT hold a candle to the NEW blue.

looking at the pix in the mega post it looks from the depth of the quary and the orientation of the truck on explosion that it may be a different truck that was destroyed. Maybe it is possible that they air bag landed the truck, and then blew up another with white spoke wheels? Seems like a lot of work for an at the time cheap truck for a high budget (Bill Murray)movie though.

Wikipedia says the following:

>>was inspired by a 1951 International Harvester[1][2] tow truck but bears more of a resemblance to a 1955-57 Chevrolet or GMC<<

Close enough for a chevy fan i guess :)
