Re: 68 c10 2wd in Sacramento, CA

Today on the way home I was totally vindicated in my love of Chevys.....

I was on my way home in my 2001 GMC Sierra (pictured above) It has 283,000 miles on it and runs like a top. I was towing my 68 home on a 2 axle car trailer (also pictured above) and I needed some gas. So I pulled up to the pump behind a early 2000's full size Ford pickup. We finished fueling up at the same time and I climbed in old trusy, and fired it up when I heard the Ford "reeer, reeeeeeer, rrruuuuurr,". I knew I had jumper cables so I hoped out and asked the guy if he needed a jump. He said it was a stick and he would try to bump start it after the exit lane was clear. I told him I would push him if he needed it. He glanced at my truck with the trailer and the 68 in tow and said "do you think you will be able too?", To which I replied "Hell yeah". SO.... With my 68 in tow on a trailer, I pushed his truck for a half a block till it started.

Welding is a lot like sex, you don't have to be great with the rod as long as you thoroughly prep the surface and your good at grinding
