To me the 67-72 (I group them all together) are the perfect blend of old and new. They are old enough to be considered a classic, hotrod, restoration candidate, etc. They are easy to work on and still fairly easy to find parts for.

On the other hand, they are new enought to have come standard with alot of the comforts we expect today like power steering, power disc brakes, tilt, A/C, factory 4x4 option, auto trans etc. You can easily swap in even newer parts if you desire like 4 wheel disc, fuel injection and a large amount of other aftermarket parts. Not to mention they look GREAT! If I had to go back further I would say my next favorites are the 55-57 trucks simply due to their good looks.

I guess the only real dislike is the tendency to rust more that some of the other vehicles in this age brackets...in my opinion at least.
