Hello, I picked up my first 67-72 gm truck today, it's a 71 GMC 1500, with factory air and leaf springs in the rear.. 350/350 turbo, electronic ignition, original hubcaps, ect..
I bought it from a guy outside of Independence Kansas, for 1200 bucks, drove it 70 miles home, and it did just fine.
I am the second owner, the original owner had bought the truck brand new and took his wife on their honeymoon with this truck.. i'm 16 years old, and i promised to restore it, and send him pictures, as this truck was very sentimental to him.
He included some rare paperwork, i believe.. You guys may be able to tell me haha. okay, it included two window stickers, original window stickers, one civilian copy and one dealer's. It also included a new vehicle warranty booklet from 1971 registered to this truck.
The truck is dark olive green, it's good running, i just need a few new parts like a windshield, a tailgate, dome light, and other small parts. It has very minimum rust, a quarter size hole in the passenger side rocker, that's it.
No pictures though, my mom has a camera, but it's so old it doesn't even have a cord that plugs up into a computer, she's gonna get a new one soon so i'll be able to get you guy's some pics.
Your website looks like a great, friendly place, and i hope i'll enjoy my stay!
