What give it away? I have no idea.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

The list is long on this one... but at first glance:
Big blocks not available in any 4x4s in this era
Black vinyl trim not available in a Super unless ordered with bucket seats
(GM never made a black vinyl seat cover with houndstooth)
Has Custom Deluxe door panels
No gb door woodgrain
No dash woodgrain

Some of those may be cosmetics - but the claim that the truck was ordered with all this stuff is false - it couldn't have been. It is most likely a Cheyenne K10 (black headliner - which can ONLY exist in a Z84 Cheyenne trim level, unless a Super is ordered with buckets) - which would have been a very nice truck if someone hadn't gone crazy with the lipstick and buzz words.

Wow. Thanks for the info. Somebody may end up with something unexpected. That's a wild price, too!

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

We should be thankful for veteran contributors like jocko and others for posting the correct information about these GM trucks.
Thanks jocko, for setting the record straight on these for sale ads and auctions.
Critiquing can be positive and fair to correct misinformation. ;)
I am always learning from this site about my 72 and the other 5 years. :chevy:

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Kind of amusing to compare these two Jarrett Backson trucks, injected 5.3 w/4L60 is FOURTY THOUSAND dollar upgrade. Is it just me or would you consider getting the emblems straight ( or even the correct emblems ?!) on the fenders and the cab-bed alignment correct a mandatory thing on a 110,000 Thousand dollar truck?! Oh, well, I guess it sold, so I have to eat that statement :)

But these are the guys "buying in" to the C10 craze and not "building in" like those of us on this site. Same guys who got drunk and bought a numbers matching, big block Camaro and a real Camaro guy points out all the obvious things that make it a fake.

These trucks were never meant to be collectible classics and I hope a purist never looks mine over very hard when it's done but for big money like some of those are going for I'd be a picky you know what.

Do they have a couple of gold bars in the bed?

$20 says it's got a cce vin and no spid

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Oh man! You must be talking about my truck. More lipstick than buzzwords though. :lol:

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Wow and a factory BB truck! LOL #8263

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Ha, no - lipstick is just fine by me - it's claiming that the lipstick was original and asking $80k for it that kinda gets under my skin..

Ken, was wondering the same thing. Perhaps a C10 lwb swapped onto a K10 swb chassis w/shortbed added. Or at least I HOPE someone didn't sacrifice an original C10 Cheyenne swb big block to make a K10. If they did, they likely lost money if it was an original swb big block Cheyenne C10. Who knows...

Driggs Idaho! I worked for the Forest Service outside of Driggs one summer back in 77 or so. I bet I saw it back then. It certainly looks to have aged better than I have.

72 K10 Custom Deluxe $9500
Assume a seat swap, but who knows.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Also running a 203 transfer case and aftermarket tailgate

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

I use these exasperating figures to explain my need to keep the garage full of my trucks. I just tell the wife they are worth bank and going up every day. I check the 70 swb 4x4 from time to time on NADA guides and OMG. It is just crazy. High retail is $82,000 HAHA!

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

As expected...with repo spid

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Dummy me posted wrong spid pic

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

+ rear bumper, lower molding, mirrors, and about 5 gallons of failing bondo.. big pass at nearly $10k

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Oh. My. Lord. It's like a two-headed Lincoln penny! The only KE10734 in existence with a CCE VIN - now that's GOTTA be worth a few extrat thou...! ;)
Like I said, seller could've done a much better job of faking a Super. Didn't even properly fake it as a 4x4...

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

All that for an estimated $120K!!!!
All that money spent and none left for photography. To me it looks like they got one of their kids to take the pictures. :lol:

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Solid call Ken.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

When I politely informed him about the truck he told me he had the window sticker and that he was a Chevy dealer for 38 years and told me I needed mental help:metal:

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Don’t feel bad ken the guy on post 8211 told me the belt molding was the bottom moulding and he has had 3000 of them and i should lean about them before i argue with a expert lol

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

We agree with you whole heartedly on that truck, but the fact that we are on this site sorta' leans toward the mental help. :lol::lol::lol:
