Trucks in the Wild

This thread may already exist, but I love the seeing these trucks in the wild. Not at a show, not in storage, but just out in the real world.

So please, share the random ones you run across. There's a couple around me.

I ran across this one at the local BigBox-Mart.

Blue truck in the Background is mine. Cool sand through paint job is a 72 that pulled in while I was at the convenience store.

I saw this one while waiting at red light on my way to the local big-box store. Beautiful truck. I've wondered if it belonged to anyone on this board.

Another spotting today. I see this one frequently around town. It's rough and has mismatched doors, but I don't care. Any time I see an old C10 I get excited.

Now that's pretty cool, who can talk more about how this is done with the spare on the front bumper and the front license plate mounted like that? What else is there, jack or anything?

A few more local trucks. I brought my kids to the train museum in Spencer NC today and this '68 shortbed was sitting in the parking lot.

A few weeks ago, we went to go check out the Bunker Hill covered bridge in Claremont NC and saw this really nice '68 shortbed.

Dang I was at Half Moon Bay High School to umpire a baseball game and took this picture for the Quonset hut thread but it's now closed. I wonder why, oh well . . .

We still have a number running around as commercial trucks (mostly landscapers, but some construction), I'll have to try to grab a few shots! There was one I was hoping to wait out... a light blue shortbed, but it's been 15 years and I still see it out there!

I'd like to show you some C-10's in the wild up here in the arctic but they are all still under 2 feet of snow.
