Taking Truck To Prom - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

BadAzz70PU · 03-29-2002, 11:46 AM

Hey guys, I havent been here in a while for a couple reasons...busy...not doing anything to the truck....the list goes on.
Anyway, I had some good news and couldnt resist coming to post it. My girlfriend is a Senior in high school and she told me last night that she wants to go to her prom in my truck because its so much cooler than anything anyone else can possibly take.
I am pretty pumped about it, plus, since I am away at school and have the insurance on "withdrawl from use" and have to put it back on for the prom, I get to drive my truck for real for the first time in about 9 months.

Oh, and I have to fix my sig, the website in there is wrong, go here for my site now: http://people.clemson.edu/~nanthon/truck/

sweet ! now that would have to be cool ! Ive enver been to or seen a prom, so maybe you should have all the fun you can get away with for those of us who have never been, heh. Good luck !!

Very nice! Took my date to the senior prom in a 1956 Ford Victoria hard top, rear lowered, front raised, roll and pleated seats, lake pipes. I can't remember who my date was, but I sure remember that car. Wish I still had it.

(Of course it was 1965 at the time.)

If a man speaks in the middle of a forest and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

Forget about "do it right the first time". Do it wrong the first time to learn how, then do it right the second time.

My wife wasn't fond of even being seen in my truck, let alone going to prom in it. Someday maybe she'll be proud of all my effort.

Good to hear from you Tony! Have fun with the prom!

Hey badazz i was wondering what u run in the 1/4 mile ????? By the way nice site and p/u

BadAzz70PU · 03-30-2002, 12:25 PM

Thanks for the replies guys. I have thought my girlfriend was a keeper for the past 2 years, we get along great and she only yells at me for spending money on my Eclipse because she says I should spend that money on my truck!!!!

The truck has only run a best of 14.1 at 94...I know, its pretty pathetic for what it is but better times will come next chance I get to run it in decent weather. It may be another year before I can run it but it will run 13's.

Mudder · 03-30-2002, 12:49 PM

Gonna take my truck to my daughters wedding next month. Wait until u see the pics of her limo!

Dang. All the girls who like my truck (or trucks like it) are already taken around here...heh, there's even a couple who both drive them...lol...

Other thing is, my dates pretty much expect my dad's Benz. It is a nice car to drive, but to be honest, just driving around, I'd rather have my truck...60mph and up, though, and I'll take the Benz. 60 and up...way up.
