Well i sold my stock 51 . I think it will have a good home and i will get to see it at the local car shows. I would have loved to keep it but i got too many toys . It wouldn't run but about 60 /70 mph anyway. I even made a SMALL profit . I turned him on to the FTE site so maybe he will log in . Here is a old pic. of the old girl.

 

sorry for your loss i just about had to do the same thing but i keep my trucks and trying to sell everthing else

 

Sorry it had to go, but glad you came out in the plus column, and that she went to a good home.

 

I didn't have to sell it i just don't need 2 51's and a fastback. Thats why i bought it was to fix it up and flip it. I wish i could have drove it more. I got a nice 52 cab if anyone needs it. Maybe someone that lives close to north fl. The lose of my leg has really put a strain on my back. I have to start looking at much easyer hobbies like fishing and WOMEN . LOL I don't need a woman I GOT A GOOD DOG !!!!!!!! I bet alot of yall are snowed in. It went from 80 degrees to the mid 30's at night.Somebody needs to shut the door up there. LOL

 

Hey Dale,

I haven't seen any posts from you in a while. When I saw the title I thought for a minute that you let Old Yeller go!!

Dan

 

yes, a good dog is a wonderful thing. i have a great wife too!!! problem is she took over my dog!! now i'll have to go out in the barn and sleep with my 54. things cud be worse!!
q in 'cuse

 

LOLOL. Only you, Dale, would know that. Congratulations on flipping it! It's a very nice truck. Hopefully the new owner will show up here.

 

[ I don't need a woman I GOT A GOOD DOG !!!!!!!!

The difference between a good dog and a woman? The dog quits whining when you let it back in the house.

 

Fred that one you let go is a really nice shade of blue, I sure miss my dog.......

 

This from the Guy that posted he ran ol' yeller up around a 100 MPH.

And the line about not needing a woman cuz I got a dog is gonna be in someones sig I think as it is a good sig line.

That really is a sweet looking truck ya sold Fred. I like them both a lot. Ya do some damn good work.

What's yer next project besides fishing. Come on up this summer and catch some salmon and halibut.

 

I like the color also. Is it a stock color?

 

60/70 won't cut it out in Colorado unless you stay off the highways. Most of our state highways are 65, with traffic running 70 or better. I25 is 75, with traffic at that or 80. Wind noise on my F1 is what limits my speed on the hiway. I sometimes only run 70 just to keep the whistle down.
Glad to hear you're keeping the screaming yellow truck.

 

It appears to be Fern Mist Green, not blue.

 

its meadow green a stock 51 color.

 

Thx for the info Fred
