I guess you could say I'm a newbie here. Anyways, here's my '72 C10 long bed with a 383 backed by a 700R4. Automatic. Not sure how to post pics or even it will work, but it's primed black faded to a grey. cherry bombs right off the headers. black tinted windows. diamond plated tool box.

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

That was back in '07. Truck still looks the same except with very, very bad knock and seems to not even turn over before it gets hung up on something.

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

when i was in high school a year a go i drove my 67 stepside everyday intill i decided to put a 350 in it then i didnt drive it the last half of my senior year

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

I bought mine 7/31/09. I quickly put new brakes, shocks, fuel pump, changed all the oil, and did anything and everything I could to make my 69 chevy c10 307 4speed run and be able to drive to school my senior year. I'll have to get some pics up here sometime of all the work I've done on it so far. It's come along way. I drove it pretty much everyday my senior year and I'm currently driving it 50 miles round trip to college everyday!

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

Cool! I drive mine too, heres latest pictures.

How far do you guys have to drive yours every day? Anyone from TN?

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

yea i got my 72 c20 i drive every where not the prettiest thing yet but getting the engine rebuilt is first. All the girls dig the classics man. especially the loud ones ;)

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

Idk what my gf thinks..Sometimes she calls it piece of crap truck :(

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

I'd get a new girlfriend dude :lol::lol::lol: thems fighting words:chop::josh::box::uhm:


nice to see there are still alot of HS owners out there....I'm a sophomore in college now......my trucks been in the shop so much that I had to get another daily driver...but I'll still drive it on the weekends......since I don't drive it so much It'll probably get a bigger cam and AFR heads as soon as I can afford it....

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

old blue I'm diggin the engine! Very very clean! I love the paint on it too! It looks like it's a project. The baby painted grille is very appealing to me, I'm not sure if I've ever seen that before *not that I can remember. Well I should maybe have worked on the outside of my truck or done some exhaust before I redid the interior in my truck, cuz my truck doesn't really appeal to many girls. Or else maybe it looks so good that the women just can't get close to it! lol jk

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

haha, thanks, its leaked a lil oil now, chipped paint etc, but still looks ok

Haha, mines not appealing to much of anyone..Im about to do some cheap bodywork and spraybomb it 1 color. Thinkin a flat red baby blue, or green....

Oh, and the engine bay is way cleaner..lol and heater hose goes to heater and not doubling back...

And the hoods on..

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

haha same but mines still sitting waiting to swap the spare I6 in.

Ive seen this thread a few times but never posted. Im a super senior :waah::lol: yea yea I know. theres reasons!! but my 67 I bought last year and waiting to get money to finish it, we can blame my GF for that!:lol::lol:

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

im a freshman and i drive a 69 c-10 green and white with a 305 in it.(for now) planning to rebuild either a 350 or 400 small bloock this winter. i drive it to school everyday.

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

Sweet! Any pics?

mx racer, any pics of the jeep? sounds COOL

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

I graduated from high school last year and I drove my 68 c-10 4x4 since sophmore year. Only when the weather permitted. I have a fully rebuilt 305 boared out to be a 307. 4 inch suspension lift and front disc brack swap. Now I am working on the body. The box is curently at the sandblast shop and should be getting body work this week. I will get some pics up of it later. I still drive it college on a regular basis as well. Matt

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

Heres my 70 that I have been rebuilding since May 2009. Im a senior in highschool and I did every bit of the work myself. I get compliments everytime I drive it, and the straight pipes scare people every time I fire it up. Whats not to love about that? Oh, and Itll smoke any Duramax/Cummins/Powerstroke/Mustang that all the "daddy's money" kids have, so its a winner in my book.

Anyone can buy a custom truck, but when you build it with your own 2 hands, and see it outperform a 20,000-30,000 dollar vehicle that someone else bought, you cant help but smile!

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

my girlfriend loves my truck she hates when i cant drive it she always wants me to pick her up in it. she also loves :chevy: i think i pick a good one lol

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

the blue was my truck in high school and i was tired of it being 3 different colors so i painted it i wished it was still light blue i really dont dig the flat black to much

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

Very nice rides everyone. I own 4 of these trucks now in all different stages of "repair" Ill make sure to take pics and post them up tomorrow. O im a freshmen in college now :mm:

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

Couldn't have said it better myself. I would take my truck over any $30,000 car or truck any day. It's way better, at least I think so. Your truck looks great by the way, saw your build the other day. I love the satin black, I'm currently painting mine the same color, should be done soon...

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

That black truck is pretty sweet lol...

I need a better stance and warmer cab...and 1 color and Im happy lol oh and maybe a diff. trans...uh it never ends..

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

i totally agree i hate the kids that drive "there cars"(dad's money bought it tho) i work for everything i have done to my truck and i got a bass a$$ truck because its mine

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

Yeah I agree. Its pretty annoying hearing all the guys talk about, "cummins this, cummins that", blah blah blah. I just laugh and say, 0-40 in six weeks? cool. Blake smoke? That looks really sweet when your foot's on the floor and your trucks sittin still... Ill take my old 350 anyday over a slow and smokin diesel.

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
 

highschool 72 soon to be driving, almost full resto done, ill post pics when finished. 1972 chevy 4x4 3/4 ton:metal:

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
