OK Facetruck buddies. I have an offer on my "Man Cave". If I except this offer, I will need to sell a bunch of my stock pile. I have several cabs and SWB chassis that take up lots of space.

What do you guys/gals think the title should go with, cabs or chassis's? And what is the going rate for each? The cabs I have are spotless with NO rust. Most of the chassis's I have already switched to "71/"72 5 lug.

**special-K** · 08-08-2018, 05:19 PM

I'd keep the plate with the chassis. People buy cabs for existing trucks and can keep their numbers straight using their own. A frame will be more desirable with VIN-plate for converting long bed truck to short, or just building a shortbed from scratch. A frame w/o a title is an orphan, a cab is not

Sounds good! Never thought of it that way before! I just buy, buy , buy...lol

**special-K** · 08-09-2018, 08:39 AM

I came here to let everyone know I have made a decision I feel really great about. It's about my '67 project paint color. I've always said I never decide, or say, till I'm on my way to the paint store on the exact color. The interior will now be black when I originally had red for it. So that opened things wide for paint choices. Yep, the color I just landed on is a sure thing. I always liked it, it's factory, even for '67, and will help keep the modest nature I like for my vehicles. I always like to weigh in as many things as come to mind when making a decision and I feel I'm at a Eureka moment. Just feels good to be able to picture it now, complete. A real motivator.

With my memory I better write it down on something and put it where I know I can find it.... Shoot. Oh well, I'm sure I'll come up with it or some other good one when the time comes.

You better write it in the cab....that will remind you.

**special-K** · 08-09-2018, 09:48 PM

That's what I'll do. Not too big

**davischevy** · 08-12-2018, 10:53 PM

I'm still alive. Update to come later.

Good to know. Waiting on pins and needles for an update......

**special-K** · 08-13-2018, 07:10 AM

Same here. I'm hoping it's good news.

**davischevy** · 08-13-2018, 08:47 AM

I have been having a ball. That's why I have been MIA.

**Ol Blue K20** · 08-13-2018, 10:09 AM

I guess that's good news.

**special-K** · 08-13-2018, 10:29 AM

That is what I was inclined to think. That's what summer is for!

**Palf70Step** · 08-13-2018, 01:43 PM

**Boog** · 08-13-2018, 02:56 PM

Another MIA is Eric. Chevyland ? He must be out roaming the country again.

Killer Bee · 08-13-2018, 03:14 PM

^ last time I talked to him he was hauling some trucks south for some professional work and daughter graduating college to be a teacher I believe..

and this time of year is the busiest season for his company..

I see you keep good company.

There I was sitting at the bar staring at my drink when a large, trouble-making biker steps up next to me, grabs my drink and gulps it down in one swig.

"Well, whatcha gonna do about it?" he says, menacingly, as I burst into tears.

"Come on, man," the biker says, "I didn't think you'd CRY. I can't stand to see a man crying."

"This is the worst day of my life," I said. "I'm a complete failure. I was late to a meeting and my boss fired me. When I went to the parking lot, I found my car had been stolen and I don't have any insurance. I left my wallet in the cab I took home. I found my wife with another man. My dog bit me and I also had 5 Out Of Bounds in my golf game yesterday."

"So, I came to this bar to work up the courage to put an end to it all. I buy a drink, I drop a capsule in it and sit here watching the poison dissolve. And then, you show up and drink the whole damn thing! But, enough about me, how are you doing?"

**slomotion** · 08-22-2018, 09:35 AM

Just goes to show.....no matter how bad one's day is going, somebody is having a worse one!

**special-K** · 08-22-2018, 09:38 AM

Aw man, that would suck. Ready to go and some badass comes up and messes it all up for you. Hopefully the biker's wife is a grateful fox, he had a big life insurance policy, and her dog doesn't bite. Cancel the cards. Get a duplicate license.

Larry,,,I heard that one before ,,it is a good one that is not telling until the end,, Good one

Say. my relatives sit out a tornado warning couple days ago and was wondering if it came through your area.. do you have a storm shelter ? My SiS had one on the lake near Morrillton ,but her kids moved her to Russeville and had to leave the shelter..
