Should I buy another 72?
 
I already know the answer to this question, but I thought I'd run it by you folks first. I'm looking at a 72 K-20. It's got a good 350 with about 60,000 miles on it, and a TH-350 trans, not sure of gear ratio, and not positive what T/C it has. Interior is pretty decent, but the body is rough and rusty in all the right spots. The truck has a 5" lift and is on 33x12.5's and the suspension has been gone through about 2 years ago, the truck has been sitting for sale for 1 year. I think I can get it bought for $1,200, and I have enough cash on hand to pay for half of it. It's had 3 owners in the last 20 years and I know all of them. I think I'll go talk to the banker man tomorrow and take this baby for a test drive to see if it still drives as nice as it did 1.5 years ago. I really don't need another truck, but I want something to take to the lake that the boat isn't gonna make look small.

Buy it! lol Of course that's the only answer you are going to get here. :D But, seriously, you wouldn't find a 67-72 4x4 here for that cheap that didn't have to go home on a trailer.

Oh, wait. . . I also have a 87 4x4 suburban I wanna part ways with soon, that would look good pulling a boat. . :D

What does not really needing another truck have to do with it? You have to buy it. It's got nothing to do with need!!

I say do it, you know they aren't making anymore of those old trucks!

Stout72 01-07-2003 02:15 PM

Of course buy it! Sounds like my truck to a T. I wish I could have got mine for that price. I paid way too much, you don't wanna know.
