# 2736 More truck pictures in Photobucket! From Rick : Go big or not at all! Higher, wider, longer, bigger... It was about 10 years ago, now ... I was driving down a street in London, Ontario. I looked off to the left and there it was calling out me via signage ..." '49 Chevy $300." Wow, that's my kind of price point! I pulled off smartly and went to look and ask. It was a 4400 with a stake bed. Really rough, windows broken, but not the 5th windows. It had been used as a yard truck in a lockable storage business. The old truck had not been on the road in decades, but most of the stuff was there. Negotiated $50 off and spent the $50 to have it flat deck towed to my place.
This story is continued in our Features section. Enjoy. ~ Editor Rick Metcalfe has been on a writing binge ... and that's our good fortune. Not only a great story teller, well ... he seems to be an all-around interesting guy. From racing to major truck modifications ... we think you'll enjoy piece after piece. "Go big or not at all!" is a story about a 1949 MAGNUM Crew Cab in the making (Feature Story). "The Ballad of “El Gringo Loco” is a Stovebolt Saga about a 1945 Chevy Art Deco that leaves his guard post at the woodpile. Rick has big things in store for him!
