This is my 1952 3100. The picture was taken back in 1998 or 1999. It had been parked in that spot for about 4 years. It was still there until we moved. It moved with us and I'm beginning to to work on it again to become my daily driver when my daughter turns 16. http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/wgIuxxnYHqCn6kPxGyfQvw?feat=directlink

Welcome to the Bolt Chad. Depending on what part of N.C. your in that wintery scene maybe happening again! I've been a lot of places in N.C. but never Mt.Ulla....where's that in relation to Spartanburg?
You found the right place. This is the BEST Chev truck site on the web. Lots of nice folks and mountains of information. Keep us posted on your project and let us know how we can help.

Mt Ulla is between Mooresville and Salisbury. We haven't gotten and snow to speak of this year yet.
I agree about this being the best chevy truck site. I've been lurking for a while. Probably would still be lurking if Peggy hadn't said she'd need more snow/winter pics. I had just scanned that pic a couple weeks ago. The only copy I had was from when I'd taken the pic over 10 years ago with my old 35mm.

Didn't know where else to post this but here it goes. It's the end of an era, for the first time in 26 years I'm not the owner of a truck. For many years when I was asked if my truck was for sale I would say no. I said no this time as well but added what would you offer me for it thinking it would be lower than I would go for to sale it. The offer was acceptable so the truck is gone and I watched it drive away. I'll miss driving it, but I won't miss all of the work that went into keeping it going as a daily driver. Who knows in a few years I may find another and not have to use it as a daily driver. I could have parked it and bought something very cheap to drive but the truck deserved to be restored and the new owner plans on doing that with his 2 sons. So I may check back in from time to time but I was never a heavy poster on here, I was here almost daily lurking and reading but would only post if I had something relevant to add.
See you down the road.

Chad, your not the first person to go down that road. However, be warned that the bug will bite you later on as life circumstances change. Just keep an eye out for the next one and perhaps, you'll find one that is "just what your looking for". Also, don't make yourself a stranger. Once a bolter, always a bolters. A truck in not necessary to participate. ..and if ever in Spartanburg area look me up. I'm in the Boiling Springs phone book...Alvin Parris. The hot dogs and BBQ is on me so come on down...or up!
