It's been a while and I photo'd another old print. Not your digital image most are accustomed to these days. This was 40 years ago.

1974 picture of my future Mother-In-Law with their '71 Suburban...with 5 girls, a regular station wagon just wouldn't do!
Attachment 2202995 1976 picture of a dirt bike trip taken to the Lake Elsinore CA campground (same '71 Burb)...future Father-In-Law was very cool to let us borrow it for overnighters (and very trusting of his daughters???). Yes...that is a '70 Boss 302 Mustang hauling a three-rail motorcycle trailer!!! Attachment 2202996 Woody |

Here is the one truck with the walkboards. The longest is 24'. I also had a 30 footer. Here's another of the same truck and same Blazer. The kids are having fun with a Heath-kit trike frame I scavenged off a job |

40 something years ago, I bought an old chevy from a local cropduster company. It was retired and used as a cattle hauler and abandoned a few miles from my childhood home. Its not a 67-72 but it is a chevy. It was my first pickup build. I'm sorry that I don't have an after shot of it, but I painted it light blue and white. I sold it when we got married in 82 and it was still on the road in the late 90s. Havent seen it since. As a side note, the 56 ford beside my Dad's building received a chevy 327/t350 when I put it on the road.

A photo that my Dad took of my Uncle Ellis (cowboy hat) his sister Ione and their Brother Richard with the 71 GMC that I have owned for the past 15 or so years.

Re: Vintage picture thread
Thanks Tim, it was a cool truck...not a show truck but still pretty nice for a school boy and I was very proud of the ol girl. She treated me well, didnt like fast shifting as was the case with most 3OT's.
It still holds a huge sentimental spot in my heart!! |

My SIL digitzed thousands of slides we found in my mothers possessions and presented it to us this Christmas. What a gift! Awesome memories. Still going through them all.
My dads 68 with Granny and Grandpa sitting nearby. The old firetruck my Grandpa got running for the nearly finished volunteer fire department in Crowley Lake. Both him and my father spearheaded the fire station project. |

My maroon 69 GMC Sierra Grande from 1983, and my green 72 GMC Sierra Grande 4x4 from 1987 - I might have been "one" of the first to put the rally wheels on one of these trucks! - the SWB pic paint was far better than what is depicted - this was a black/white to color conversion.

I especially like your GMC. At that same time I had my first 73-87, a '78 short bed, that color (called Mahogany) with a black snap on tonneau cover. I sold it to get a '71 Blazer. I decided I wasn't ready to move on yet :cool:. I was always washing and waxing that truck...and not the K/20!
