I hear ya. If a guy isn’t careful it can become a toxic dump sucking you in. I went through and deleted any controversial followers or that I followed and I just try and keep it as a place to see and communicate about cool trucks.

I was wondering why I hadn’t seen you post much. I’ll try to check in here on your build more often.

Your truck looks amazing! I hope to see it in person some day. Do you ever make it out to Saskatchewan for any shows?

Yeah this is definitely one of my favorites. Just fantastic. I love the bed wood color, it matches the patina perfectly.

Thanks man, I haven’t made it out that way, but you never know what might happen.

Thanks. I agree, it couldn’t have turned out any better, not bad for 53 year old boards:lol::lol:

Photos look awesome! I love all the unique angles and closeups. Also, a truck is definitely the best vehicle to get family pics in. Those look great as well.

Thanks, photographer did a great job. And, I completely agree, there’s just so many options for poses and fun.

I’ve always been a fan of the light yellow or Butternut yellow as it’s usually called. Back in May I was able to add this little gem to keep daisy company.

It’s a 67’. Bone stock with its original 210 horse 327 and power glide. A total dream car.

I love that Camaro. Looks killer with steelies and caps and a damn good addition to your garage.

Cool Camaro!

What a lineup! Yet another good choice, and a mighty fine investment I might add. Congratulations!:metal::chevy:

When you say bone stock would that even include factory paint? Just curious.

Thanks.
I wish, car was originally sold in California, then frame off restored in Arizona in the early 90’s. I have a bunch of pics from the restoration and it appears to have been a rust free car.
Made its way to Canada in 1997.
