# 2829 From Larry : Back in 1953, our high school class went on a field trip to visit the Chevrolet assembly plant in Kansas City, Missouri. During the tour, we noticed some truck cabs with curved windshields. That was how we found out that a new look was coming for the next model year. Now fast forward to 1967. I was looking for a second vehicle and decided to get a truck. Fond memories of that field trip influenced me to search for a 1954 Chevy. Once the truck was mine, I used it to drive to work, as well as other chores around the farm. I also made some side boards, and hauled grain with it to the local co-op elevator. In 1969 the brakes needed some attention, so I started the repair but never finished. So I put it in the barn, and that's where it sat until last August (2009).
Well, that's a great story and we are glad to have it here. That must have been exciting to visit the Chevy plant, especially with the new line coming out! Something many of our 'Bolters would probably enjoyed (some of them, IF they were old enough!) ~ Editor
