A Short Story about a 61 Chevy Long Bed Truck

A young man who I rented my little rental house I had on my property in Oregon before I move to Idaho owned this truck for a few months ,,,,,,,,,,,, Photo 1 was taken of the truck while sitting in the drive way to my shop .. Other photos are it at a gas station while the young man owned it and the others are of it after the last guy bought it just recently ..

When it was at my place in about 2006 the young man who lived in my rental sold it back to the guy he bought it from and then that guy sold it to another guy and that guy sold to a guy in ""France"". Not sure who did the restoring of it after the young man that lived in the my rental house sold it .

I guess this is the end of the story ..

I am getting bad at explaining my self Tim ,,sorry

A young man who is a friend of the family stayed in this little house that I remodeled from a wood shed to a one two room one bath ..
The young man bought this truck from a guy and after some time he sold it back to the same guy
That guy did a bit more work on it and then put on craigs List for sale

A guy in France bought and finished it to what it looks like in the photo

The first photo of this truck shown above is when the young man owned and it is in the drive way just before the little house at my place out in Oregon

Re: A Short Story about a 61 Chevy Long Bed Truck

You explained it ok, Larry. I was just ribbing you. You said it would be a story about the truck and you told it.

I was off the website back when you posted this and just found it today. I saw there weren't any responses and thought I'd move it here since it's about one of these trucks
