I am officially registered as a 1982 Chevrolet Pickup, a Squarebody if your in the know, but affectionately known as Goose by all my friends.
I was built for Colin Lukas. He always wanted a built truck and I am his final gift from his mom.
I have a Poked and Stroked 496 BBC thanks the the fellows at Pakes, my rebuilt Muncie SM 465 transfers all that torque and power to my custom Madison Driveshaft without a problem. BDS has lifted me 4" and Cunningham's Chop Shop custom stainless exhaust has made sure I am Loud AF, Painted a sharp Indigo Blue by Kipprz with Silver under pinnings from Spectrum Powdercoat. I roll on Draco American Forces, thanks to Mitch and Dan at Pernot. I have a custom bench seat from TLC Restoration with Colin's name on it so he always rides with me and whomever is in the cab.
I have been a community project from the start, It started when I was found in Antigo and brought back home to Milton on a trailer by one of Colin's long time friends, Mitch of Pegasus Performance.
Many of Colin’s friends, family and his favorite local businesses contributed ideas, time and materials to my resurrection. My build always had Colin in mind. What would he like to be driving?
Now that I am on the road and moving under my own power, a big thank you to all who have contributed,
Love Goose
