Dang Rene, wheel barrows loads of money including that Cheyenne.

widewhite70 · 03-05-2015, 07:37 PM

I always loved that truck!

Raider Rudy · 03-05-2015, 09:10 PM

You should have given me the air cleaner spacer from the carb before you sold it. I told you Julius!

**special-K** · 03-05-2015, 11:13 PM

If it's hell freezing over because you sold Gumby, what's it going to be if you sell the black one...Armageddon? I hope so. Because if it means the end of the world when you sell the black truck then that means you'll never sell it (or if you do we won't know and it won't matter, and everything will be black, and... ).

LOL Tim....It was on CL not too long ago. I don't know if it sold or not....

Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence...

The original Martinez shop truck has deep sentimental value (am I right?). We'll know just how sentimental King is if/when we see that one listed. Also, it has his name on it so who would want all that??

And it's funny, I've have had a few people with the last name of Martinez and people from the town of Martinez (2 hours away from me) ask me if I would sell it, luckily I'm strong willed and I have said "No"....

Malamute · 03-06-2015, 02:33 PM

Congrats......I guess? That is one beautiful truck and I'm sure the new owner is ecstatic.

I have always said money talks and at the right time money can influence our decisions. As much as I liked your truck it it good to hear it is going to a good home plus ... you still have some mighty fine back up trucks

Yeah it's true I got really good money for these last 2 trucks, they both went to good homes and luckily I do still have a couple of back up trucks.....and I am very thankful.

I want it because it matches my hat! I could just have witness protection change my name to Martinez. OOPS!! I said it on the internet!
Olives give me a hangover (I guess that was it) and I have hang-ups with drinking from a stemmed glass...unless it looks like a cactus and is filled with Margarita on the rocks

volksworld · 03-07-2015, 10:26 AM

was watching the show '' booze traveler '' a couple days ago and the guy claimed the martini was originally called the martinez but i dont think he ever explained why....amazing what you can learn on a truck forum...

I had one last month, remember you laughed at me when I bought it,...... and I laughed even harder at you when I sold it 3 weeks later.
