You'd be crazy to take a car that nice and get it all muddy http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

That car will be missed but I know you had more fun with it that most poeple do with there cars. What you gonna ask for it? We jsut started a 32 pick-up for Race. I think he's gonna be bumed to see it go too. Have a great time in Floree-da. And the wagon looks great, It's no Family Truckster but it should do.

Here's to you Clark http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

11-23-2003, 06:31 PM
Roadstar gonna ask $15,ooo for it. If I don't get it I'll keep it. I took the Goodyear wheels off. I don't think I'll find another set so I won't let them go.
I Race's truck gonna be a closed cab or roadster? I can get some detail shots of a real 32 RPU

Thats a good price for that hotrod Clark. Hell I'd be tempted to take the E7J's off too.
No Race is thinking channeled closed cab with a slight chop too. So who has the original 32 RPU? That is my dream truck. I took some pics of one in bonniville. I would love any pics I can get of one, thanks.

11-23-2003, 06:45 PM
Tank.... Check on Main St in McSherrystown. The bike shop has a 63/64 Chevy that might be for sale. Tell him you know me.

Sweet pickemup! Are there other pictures available of it? Like clean front and rear 3/4 views? It would make an excellent subject to build a model of, and the more pics the better.

11-23-2003, 10:50 PM
Rustin...I'll email you some pics when I get back,but I wat to see some pics if you build one.

Looks like you may get some rain on Monday but should have decent traveling after that - have a good road trip.. If you can find the evening cruise spot on Hwy 1 I believe at the shopping center you will find me, as I am staying directly across the street, the wagon should be in the parking lot.. But then they may be so many people around it, you know 10 - 20 deep it may be hard to see it.. (Ya right)... see ya there...
