Hey; that place looks vaguely familiar 35 minutes from home! If you guys go in the spring and are looking for some good New Mexican food not too far away, I will gladly point you in the right direction!

Eric, that’s a really bad ass truck! Congratulations on that one. I’ve always loved the black on hugger scheme, even better in a super with buckets!

Re: ChevyLand ‘The Truck Photo Tour’

Yes it was
We met in Tennessee a couple months ago
In Lebanon, TN
It was the first truck I walked up on at
The southeast truck nationals
Didn’t even know it was his
Went on with the weekend, and at some point JQ messaged me thinking he saw me at the show. So when I went out to see them at the swap meet area, uncle and I met for the first time.
Gave him a hat as we bs’d when they were all packing up , told him I would like to buy the truck if he ever was to sell it. And the rest is history.
Uncle was nice enough to let it come
Back to where it was born

Dang no kidding I looked at the pics again on my laptop and it’s clearly a bench. For whatever reason it looked like buckets on my phone. Both awesome trucks none the less.

Joe,
Did you originally find it out of Nevada?
There was some paperwork in the glovebox that looked like it

I like all the original paperwork.

Did this cab originally have a pass through?

Re: ChevyLand ‘The Truck Photo Tour’

Only below the center part of the rear window
Which got sectioned in by someone
It was not cut through the top above the window, thankfully

In the rear
Lowered the back end about 3”

Hmm. Good question. The rear drop is very noticeable. I do think 1-1.5” or so off the front would match nicely.

Any other plans, or keep it like it is?

I’m pretty sure he said he has another bronze one just like it with a 4spd that he likes better. Just needs to get his welder friend to get it finish it up from the last wreck ?
