The Big truck are becoming more populare I think because you just can't hardly find a Pickup any more that has not already been saved, which means you have to pay more for them.
Also with a bigger truck in the drive way it gives you a reason to build a bigger shop to work on it in. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 187 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 187 | | | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 3,068 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 3,068 | Here's a shot of a few of my biggies and still have a few others to go look at and start the haggling process.

Very nice line-up...keep us posted on your potential "new" acquisitions!!! | | | | | Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 2,549 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 2,549 | I like to keep my trucks stock, but being a COE kinda guy, It is tempting to take a '47-'53 Chevy 5100 series (110"in. wheelbase) COE, or comparible GMC COE with the 110"in. wheelbase 60"in. cab to axle, & install a '47-'53 1 ton(9 ft.) bed on it. Finished product, a "NEAT" COE pickup. | | |
