Re: New member in ATL - help evaluating a truck
Nice truck Todd. Where did you find it? I'm in Atlanta also and found my '68 all original 45k mile long bed in Montana. Maybe we'll see you at Caffeine and Octane some Sunday? I'm hoping to hit the April meet with my bump and the 68 mustang.toddspeed wrote:Here's a pic. Just got off the phone with the owner, we agreed on a price and I pick it up this week!

Re: New member in ATL - help evaluating a truck
Hey Steve - it was a KY truck that the family brought to Atlanta to sell for the original owner who is ill.
Might make it to cars and coffee at some point - hard to do much on weekends since I'm usually at a track somewhere.

Looks like a real nice truck Todd. Congrats. Would love to see more pics at some point and a little more info about it.
Weekends at the track....work or play?
