My '72 C10...
 

Hey guys...it's been a few years since I was active on the board...spent a TON of time on here when I first inherited my truck from my grandfather...and since that time, it's spent most of it's time under a cover. As a matter a fact, I probably haven't uncovered it and started it in almost a year! Yikes! I was not looking forward to what I was going to find when I got it out...a quick charge on the battery and it started right up and drove like a top like the day I parked it. Just got a dieseling problem, and the gas gauge doesn't register right...but otherwise a great machine...now, got to convince my 14 year old that he DOES want it. Took some pics to share with you guys...thanks for looking.

'72 C10, LWB, 3 on the tree, original 250 w/103,000 mi.

That is one sharp survivor.I would take it in a heartbeat.Get the boy a Honda and keep that one for yourself.You have a family history and a grweat looking truck.Sad to say most young drivers do not take care of their first car unless they are gearheads and if he was he would want that truck.

Nice truck,I had a neighbor that had the exact 2 tone paint job

Re: My '72 C10...
 

That thing is clean enough to eat off. Regardless how it works out with your son dont get rid of it!!!

Re: My '72 C10...

Re: My '72 C10...

Re: My '72 C10...
 

really nice truck

Re: My '72 C10...
 

Definetly buy your son a rice burner and keep that one intact,,,very nice looking rig...

Re: My '72 C10...
 

That's a beauty. If was going to give that to my son, I would make sure it had power steering and power brakes, and it would be a little more appealing for him to drive.

Nice truck! You know I seen it many times, not only with trucks, But with cars(Impala's 55' Camero's Ect.....) If A kid's heart's not in to it,It won't work out, It will never be cared for the way you think it should, Sad but true.

Re: My '72 C10...
 

Who needs power steering and brakes? I feel all kids should learn to drive without all the perks and with a stick. Makes them apriciate it more when they do get a vehicle with a few extras. Its sad how many adults cant drive a stick!!

Re: My '72 C10...
 

Ha my truck has powersteering but no power breaks and im trying to make it a stick. My 72 has no power options so im glad the 69 at least has power steering

Re: My '72 C10...
 

Great looking rig.

Re: My '72 C10...
 

Kids always wreck their first car, don't give it to him.

Sweet ride.

It appears we have similar tastes in window stickers...
