Long story short, boy gets first truck, boy sells first truck, boy regrets it....

I sold this truck to a guy in the Dunn/Benson area 5-6 years ago. I met him at the place he worked and then took it to his home for him. A few months ago, I got a wild hair and looked up the name of the business in the off chance he still worked there. He did not, his old boss informed me that he was now in prison(?!?) and his family had hauled all his vehicles to the junkyard.....If anyone around that area has spotted this thing around any parts yards let me know!

It was a two-tone Burgandy/Gold 1992 Chevy Silverado SWB Regular Cab.

The junkyard , yea right...... I bet someone in his fam is driving the truck today. Or it was impounded by the law and sold at auction?
 
What was the guys name?, or more importantly whereabouts the area did you take it?
I've lived here 30 years and know almost all the guys,kids,trucks around here...and i've never seen this one. i would remember the color scheme, cause i had a 93 xcab just like it.

PM what you can remember and i'll see if i can dig up anything.
 
I can't recall the guys name right off the top of my head, Kenneth maybe? But he worked at Arnett Hydraulics in Benson. He had me follow him to his house which wasn't terribly far, down a few back roads to unload it.

I don't think he ever got it on the road, the engine was blown when I sold it to him.
 
I had the leaky tilt/trim on my 90HP Yamaha 4stroke outboard repaired at Arnettes a few years ago 07-8?,.... O rings. Alot cheaper than several boat mechanics/dealers quotes for this repair and a fine job- good folks!. I remember the guy in the shop had huge, tattooed arms, is this the same guy? ....... I did remove/deliver/reinstall/bleed, the unit saving more money ; the boat places I spoke to wouldn't warranty the repair unless they also removed., reinstalled / bleed the unit, Arnettes gave me a warranty against leaking for a while and it still is working fine. I hope you find that truck:beer:
 
Thanks! I don't remember this guy having any tattoo's. If it helps, I think he drove a longbed 2wd chevrolet, 88-98 body style.
