Well...I said I was gonna finish what I have on the table. Oh well throw a wrench in it and now and I have a '69 Half Cab..... I found this one years ago at an older gentlemans house we were we were doing some work. I talked to him and asked him about the truck. He told me that he was a maintenance engineer long ago at East Tennessee State University. He saidthis truck was used at ETSU as a fleet truck when he worked there in the 60's and 70's. He then retired and aquiring this truck from the school years ago. He said it was used light duty around campus for delivery and odd jobs. He said it was going to be set up as a plow truck, but never ended up being used for that purpose. It still has the air bags inside the front front coil springs, and the plow mounts on the frame. Glad they never plowed with it, or it wouldn't be in this good of shape:) Anyway he passed away a couple of years ago and it went to his Gransdson. He kept it for a year and then contacted me and asked it I would like to buy it. Well, you know the rest of the story. Anyway...thanks for letting me share with you guys.

Very nice Andy. Next time I'm visiting SW VA I'm going to contact you to come have a look at the stable.

Are you coming to the Roundup?
