Tooele, Ut, a bit west of Salt Lake. had one 65 short stepside, it was a bit of a beater but it was a fun little rig, it was my daily driver for years. Got another 65, originally bought it as a parts donor, got just the cab now, thinking about putting it on a later 4x4 frame.

Hi from Littleton CO. There seems to be quite a few of us in the Denver area. I propose that we pick a place on a Saturday and meet. Any interest? There is a Sonic on Ken Caryl just east of C-470 that I have seen classic cars gather.
