Photoshop skills??

Alan, I did not buy this, I just like the color. After owning 2 Chevy's, I don't think I'll ever have another one....Matter of fact, I'm going to upload a video I took to cover my butt a couple weekends ago when I helped my bro-in-law move...it's really funny...but anyway...I'll email you the pics Alan.
 
Here ya go Alan....One of the reasons I don't drive Chebbys anymore. I have owned 2 like I said before and to be honest, I would have like both of them if it weren't for the little things. The drivetrains treated me well and I never had any BIG problems with them, but it gets annoying when you have a brand new truck and a tail-light goes out after you've had it 3 weeks. Or dials from the a/c falling off in your hand, or vibrations and rattles in the dash when it's less than 6 months old, or front end shimmy's that they can't seem to fix, or going to lift the handle on the tailgate and it falls off in your hand......just things like that. I know some people swear by GM products and that's fine, that's what makes the world go around.
 
I've had Chevys for my last two vehicles a 97 and an 03 sold the first one because it had almost 150,000 miles on it, my 03 has about 125,000 so I'm thinking about what is next...
 
Wanna hear a true, sick story?? My cousin, one month ago, blew his tranmission on his 1ton Chevy '03 dually. Replaced with a big stout tranny, able to handle 900hp with a 150K warranty. Total cost: $6500.00. Got the truck back. Truck has 101,000miles on it. Within three days of having it back, he blew the Duramax motor. Oilpump went out, lost the bearings. Best cost at this point: $10,500.00, new short block and install. So basically, he's spent 17K in the last month on his truck w/ 101K miles on it.
 
My work truck is White but the Play truck is Black.

Someone said they wanted a Black truck and trailer, well here is mine! :)

Dave thats a nice looking truck, you been showing her?
 
Thanks Ron,

Yes it was at a Chapter meeting of ATHS (American Truck Historical Society) http://www.aths.org/ when these pictures were taken.

The truck is a '46 White WB-22, the tractor on board is a '30 Case model C. The tri-axle trailer is a '70 DoMor that we just finished restoring. The tractor on the trailer is a '37 Farmall F-20.

This hobby has snowballed on me. I started with one tractor and now have 5! If you have old tractors you gotta have an old truck to haul them with! And of course might as well get an old trailer to put behind the old truck hauling the old tractors. And so it goes. :)

Old Trucks n Old Tractors are Fun! ;)

Sounds great Ron. When are you planning to visit your Mom here in Illinois? I'm about 150 miles south of Blue Island.
