Todays Spotlight is on user the Rocknrod and his 64 Chevy
Last year we started a main page spotlight of members trucks. I dropped the bomb on that one. Since we just finished updating the ToTM on the main page, I wanted to give them their time to shine. With that said, here is todays member spotlight. We will host them in GD for a bit and hopefully get back on track on the main page.
The Rocknrod is also a valued staff member in our community. We appreciate you and all you do. |

Re: Todays Spotlight is on user the Rocknrod and his 64 Chevy
I love everything about that truck. I thought this was a spotlight on the truck as well as Rocknrod. We got the specs on the truck, what are the specs on Rocknrod? On second thought, never mind

Re: Todays Spotlight is on user the Rocknrod and his 64 Chevy
That truck is absolutely beautiful....colors are perfect, stance is just right, wheels are the final beautiful touch to the truck.
You have a wonderful piece of history there, enjoy it my friend.
