🌵Chevyland--Arizona Adventures--2017🌵

Last summer I bought that 72 Cheyenne super and Roadtriped it from
North Carolina to California with my son. 4800mi and(3 weeks👍
We met some cool people from this site along the way, and Had so much fun on the thread, I thought I'd start one about
My winter exploits down here in the desert (a month or 2👍👍
Hope this gets as much feedback as our trip got

I'll try and keep it interesting enough to keep your interest

Please chime in
Let's see where we go with this thing

This first picture is what I have now to start the adventure
(That has an engine aboard)
More on the specifics later

Time to go for a ride🏍

Really happy with the truck, drove it to all my HS football games and it worked great. Currently in the shop to replace the cab corners and headliner like you suggested.

Hey Dale, we almost hit you up for that beer on our summer Roadtrip. We ended up coming I5 to 80, and driving right by the Budweiser plant. But my son was so excited to get home to his girlfriend, he wouldn't let me stop. Plus it was our longest day driving the whole trip. You know how it is at the end of a vacation. You just want to get home. When I get back to the Bay Area, we need to get some truck guys together, and hook up. Eric

Let me know when you're coming through and we'll have a beer.

Hi Rick, yes I'm sure it would be a bit chilly up there. If you and your wife want a break, we have a room for you down here. I noticed you have been collecting parts for your truck on the board. I just missed that green dash pad. But it will probably look better on your truck (being all original). Hope you are well. Eric

Re: 🌵Chevyland--Arizona Adventures--2017🌵

Hey cypressbog
Is the stew the stew available in all stores?
Or only locally at the packing plant!
I'm not much into sweet potatoes, but maybe they will
taste better with those ingredients

Man lol 😂 lol

The coon fat gravy teared me up
