Cool
My Grandpa's Truck
This is my grandpa's Chevy love truck not sure what year. He bought it when he was having a "mid-life crisis" sold it a year later
 Fun truck but was more of a show truck than a fast ride First time I went a 100plus mph was in that truck on the backroads of illinios

I have a quick question and I am sorry if it is a dumb one. What does the "heartbeat of America" mean. It is also on the chrome headers on the two dragster engines sitting in my metal shop class.
Sorry if this is a dumb question, HT |

It's a slogan from Chevrolet, from a time when they were a going concern.

Yea chevy's line personally I'm a ford guy(nothin beats a mustang) but this was one hot chevy. I have a vhs of him draging but my tv won't play it. This wasn't a very fast drag truck but it was a crazy road car
the crazy thing was my grandpa sold it for 4500- I guess hotrods are a dime a dozen in the midwest

I've long been a big GM fan myself, especially of their small block V8 engines! That's why I hate to see GM in their present situation.
