When i went to pickup my 55 teh owner was kind enough to help me unload 8 trash bags full of cans out of the bed. Got it home to discover a pool liner that still had water in it in the bed, real old rake. In the cab i came across a box of brake lining rivets, registrations dating back to 57, Had wasps in teh tailgate but nothing in the cab. Found a HUGE hornet nest wrapped around the rear brake drum tonight when i pulled the wheel.

Best part of it is my older brother had a 55 chevy pickup also he bought years ago...he passed away in 2000 and the whereabouts of the truck are still unknown. My dad came across the title for his truck a few months back and believe it or not his truck was in sequence right after mine

Most interesting was when i was 19, (not to long ago) i bought a 88 monte carlo SS with a blown headgasket cheap, had 89k miles black and absolutely gorgeous. put a 406 in it and drove it for awhile...was running stereo wiring one day through the center console and came across a Glock 27....Full mag and one in the chamber and no serial number stuffed down in between the seat and console...aurora police came out and picked it up after a long explanation of where it came from.
