Welcome to the Bolt hoesel. I'm sure you'll find the right truck but in the meantime just hang out with us and get to know the "gang".

Alex, I'm not sure what Clints truck was,but sit tight someone here will know.
Was it the one he drove in 'The bridges of Madison county'?
Big Clint has a history of driving GM trucks in a few of his movies!

I know a couple of guys 'over here' who can help source and import trucks.
If you're serious and have some cash burning a hole in your pocket, I can put you onto them.Start saving.......
You know you want one!

Welcome Alex!! I never saw Bridges of Madison County, but if it's the tan/beige short bed, it could be the same one he drove in the "Every Which Way ..." series of movies. And he owns that truck, btw. Or at least he did. We answered one of his "casting calls" ("Flags of Our Fathers") and it was amazing that all the vintage vehicles on set were Stovebolts (including a 1954 GMC bus) smile

Jock -- I think you can start planning the Scottish GabFest now ... smile I'll start packing!

Hello Alex,

If you are looking to import something, California and Arizona are happy hunting grounds for rust-free vehicles. I'm based in Northern California, let me know if you find something in my area.
