Default Re: Is it Supercar, Supertruck, or a Supercar Truck?

for sale or trade? was this on a truck to illinois a few weeks ago with brian at concours headed towards another famous collection, if so it was night time, 10:30 pm and i was told that another member on the board owned the car and i didn't take the time to see it, he also failed to tell me it was an LS6 if it was the same car/truck. boy, those truck drivers sure do own some very nice cars for a short period of time, more than all of us put together, not to mention seeing more than we ever will, i wonder what there insurance rates are? ha! nice car/truck, would be welcome at the next supercar reunion!

Yes Kevin H, Brian/Concours Transport had it on the truck when he stopped at your place. Then on to Mike's place in Illinois before coming to Seattle.

Actually the US Air Force was the biggest collector of these High horse El-Caminos. They had a Fleet of 6 for (then) classified activities through the 1970's and 80's. It is great history, which stayed classified through the early 90's when the fleet was retired- and replaced with another Chevy offering.

Does anyone else out there know about this?? [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

Most impressed Hawaiian- you are way up there on the info ladder. Must have been tricky to attach the gear to the wings at speeds of 95+ MPH. Thanks for saving me the pain of writing it all up! [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

No actually I just did the research to find the information out. The only others that knew during the active years were the pilots and the support crews, or AF personnel who got to watch. I understand that it was quite a drag race to catch the plane. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
