Here is one my Dad with his old shop truck

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

Here's my pop with his brand new 1968 swb stepside. Truck is about a month old in pic.

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

The day after high school graduation in 1986. The truck my parents gave me when I turned 16 was green with no chrome on one side and the drivers side door had been bent back to the front fender in a fire wood cutting accident.

A friend told me a guy named Verbon could paint it for me and I spent all summer at his house sanding and sanding and sanding. I owe him a ton for the help he gave me on this truck and this is how it turned out. Wound up building the 350 in it with the 3 on the tree and out ran mustangs, vettes and a 350z in that thing. Great memories and why I have my current project.

It got stolen and rebuilt again but that is another story.

Wish I had a better pic.

Also notice the old one tone in the background. I had forgotten about it till I noticed it in this pic the other day.

Not too vintage, but I took these back in the '90s. My Dad's 69 GMC. Sadly, it was scrapped, but I saved the grille before it went.

I recently got a box of pictures that came from my aunt.
I especially got a kick out of the first pic. Not sure whose Vette that was, but the truck was my uncles brother. I like the caption around the border.

My uncles 69 Mustang. The thing I remember about that car from when I was a kid was the drivers window always fell out of the track.

This one is the Vette, my uncles brother and his Impala. Not sure what the four door in the back ground was.

This pic was at Lake Geneva Raceway in Wisconsin. It had a paved oval stock car track w a 1/8th mile drag strip through the center of the oval.

Other than Chevrolet allowed..... how about VW Beetle?
My dad drove his where most people wouldn't take a truck. In this case, Glen Canyon, before the dam filled Lake Powell.

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

I see some non 67-72 GM Trucks in here. So, here is the Dodge Power Wagon I had in the late '70s-early '80s

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

Scanned in this old photo, taken about 1977. That's me standing in front of my then pride and joy, a 1971 GMC C1500 Custom, complete with a Moose decal on one door, and a Rainbow Trout decal on the other!

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

My '71 K10 SB I had for 26 years. The first pic was taken in about '84, the second was taken in '89 and the last one taken in '90 after the color change. Sorry for the grainy looks. I made digital photos of prints. :o

That was my first try at bodywork and paint and I learned a lot the hard way!
If I had it to do over, I would have kept it medium olive and kept the trim. I prefer stock looks now.

Re: Vintage picture thread

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

My best friend from high schools dad bought it new (hes on the left). When Claude

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

You guys were so young and had hair.

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

Here's my grandfather on his Indian motorcycle - he and my grandmother rode it leaving their wedding I believe. Early 1900's or 1910's I'm sure.

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

I just found this old photo, ( 1981) of my 1969 CST Blazer. By the late 80s it was rusted beyond fixing. I almost gave it away back then. Wish I had it now!!

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

Here are a few old pictures of my first pride and joy back in mid 80's. Lots of good memories in that ole 72 K20! "Like a Rock"

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

I posted a couple times earlier but found this one of the truck and camper recently when I converted all the old slides to digital. Taken at the entrance to Bryce Canyon National Park sometime during the summer of 1971. I hardly recognize that good looking young kid in the picture.

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

Great old pictures. I love that truck and that he hung onto it so long.

Here are some early-80s pictures of a couple K/20s I had...work and play

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

My 69 K20, I bought it in '82. My girlfriend, now wife, helped with the down payment. It was shorten down and had a step side put on it. I truck pulled it for three years, it was the NWTPA (NW Truck Pulling Association) stock 5800lb Points Class Champion in 1985. 456 gears, SM465, N/S rear end, 36 inch tires, it was an awesome puller. Hauled a lot of firewood with it too!

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

Looks great! I love the Western Bullets!

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

I found this old(er) picture from 25 or so years ago. Just got home from work, sittimg relaxing with my younger son, the dog, oh and my ex-wife :lol:

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

Holy cow! You're a young man in that pic. How old is your son now?

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

This thread is over six years old and the op hasn't been here in over four years, but the thread is still alive and well.

It was pretty much derailed way back there and got away from the original intent of 67 72 trucks. I can't imagine how it didn't get moved to general discussion.

I went through the whole thread, and it's sad that where pictures were, only gray PB squares remain.

I will have to get my scanner out and go through my archives.

Very interesting thread.

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

Dad's '68 and his CJ-7 then and now. Sure is weird being able to drive either one.

Jeep was sold in '80

Old blue in '86.

And both of them came back home this year.

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

Almost 26. That would have been 93 or 94
Yeah, it started in '02 before I registered. Back then it was all one big happy forum and 67-72s were still the main focus. I guess when things got broken down to body styles they left it in 67-72 since it's mostly those. Photobucket sucks. I'm no computer expert, but couldn't they have just stopped all free sharing from the point where they made the change earlier this year? They use ransom tactics hoping to expand their income and I see it as a shot to their feet.
I think that is fantastic. Not only found them, but now own them.

This was about '86

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

I ran across this old pic in one of the threads a while back. About when was it taken Tim?

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

That was just last year, August '16. Here is an older one

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

Here is some pics of my 69 Camaro I had for several years. When I still had more hair.

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

Everybody loves camaros. My favorite is a 69 rally sport. Pretty car.

Re: Vintage picture thread
 

Plan is to race the jeep in the Norra baja 1000 next April.
