Thanks for the comments. This is actually the 8th 72 I've owned and by far the most optioned. Factory buckets, tilt, tach, air, dual batteries, original interior in near mint condition.

The green and white is my last truck. I built it from the axles up. Sold it in 2001 on eBay.

Glad you got your truck back, I did the same, sold mine in 2003 installed a 454 for my buddy a year ago then bought it back just 6 months ago, not leaving again either. Nice color.

Love everything on it except the mirrors.

Okay, now I can't find any pictures of it in one piece (besides my avatar)... mine is the same minty green color but in 1/2 ton flavor. I scored a set of 3/4 ton axles from a '77 because I'm building it into a tow rig to haul my (future) Toyota rock crawler. Kept the original 292, punched .060", added Schneider 268* cam, stock crank/rods, rebuilt head, Clifford intake/header, got a trans/t-case from a '70 Blazer (my t-case was locked in 4H) and I'm saving to run injection from FAST whenever it gets put back together.

blackhawkip,
real nice truck! I noticed your winch bumper setup. What can you tell us about what you have there? Looks very interesting, and I'm considering some options to put a winch up front with my factory bumper like you did.

Thanks for the help.

The winch was installed by the dealer in 1972 when it was originally purchased new. It is a Hickey Enterprises Sidewinder II winch, part #113007. The mounting kit and bumper mount is also a Hickey, part number 223101.

Hope this helps.....

It's a shame you would post this; if everybody drove your truck what would you drive? Not everyone wants 6 wheels....

Here's my 71, almost done with a 5.3L swap, just need pipes and rear driveline built. Had a 402 BB, stock 350 before that, and 292 straight 6 originally. Dad bought her brand new on special order for a huntin rig. And yes, he had it painted that rediculous color in 1988, she'll be going back to her original green.

I'm new here (first post). Been into Mustangs for the last decade but recently traded my Mustang for this 69 GMC. It has a 454 in it, a 4" Suspension lift and a 4" body lift with 38" Michelin Military tires on it. I am looking to upgrade to a 6" Suspension lift and take 2" out of the body lift this winter. I already removed the 1980's rollbar, LOL. Anyhow, here are some pics.
