We bought our '69 C-10 from the Original owner..........It went from stay in the garage(Sunday driver only), to daily drive to work truck, to finally a farm truck...............We bought it from him and it was our farm truck

Now the frame is under my brother's '71 C-10 and I am going to use the cab, box, front clip, and engine in a 4x4 truck to use here around the place. The cab/box was actually shot when we bought it, it just had a good engine/chassis that we wanted. The old truck sure worked a hard 10 years for us though. It will make a good snow plow/farm truck again though

My brothers '71 C-10 was originally a K-10 that was a hodge podge of parts thrown on a spare frame by other owners years ago.........

My '69 3500 GMC was a township truck, it was sold to a person who lived in the township, and I bought it from him at a farm equipment consignment sale.

My '71 C-20 came from the second owner.........It was originally purchased to haul sand for the original owner who I assume had a small business of some sort. Why he bought a Cheyenne 20 to haul sand I have no idea, the second owner never understood it either. Had a 350 spec'ed out, but he didn't go for an auto or 4 spd, but instead took the base 3 spd.

A '69 C-10 parts truck we have has had more owners than even we probably know about.

All of my info came from previous owners..........
