This looks like a nice truck, belong to anyone here? IMO its compeltely perfect, stance, wheels, color. Almost exactly what I would do with one....

That is definitley a pretty truck. I also have a soft spot for the blue/white color combo.

bluex · 05-16-2011, 11:38 PM

Ya me too, I love the blue and white trucks...

kcsa75 · 05-16-2011, 11:47 PM

Yeah, I often wish I was born rich instead of so darn good looking.

I have a worse problem. I am not rich or good looking.

BET68 · 05-17-2011, 09:34 AM

Still worse.not rich,not good looking and old!!!

KMACD71 · 05-17-2011, 09:58 AM

The buy it now price on Ebay is $13,500. Even better.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1972-...item1c1bc99e68

19seventeeCustom · 05-17-2011, 10:04 AM

It doesn't appear to be a bad buy at 13.5, but he has no paperwork supporting the factory BB, if that matters to you. The truck looks like a really clean driver, and that is exactly what I would do if I owned it!!!

big_al_71 · 05-17-2011, 10:30 AM

I saw it on ebay last week and he was set on 15k so I guess he changed his mind. Definetly a nice driver....

*67/72junkie* · 05-17-2011, 10:42 AM

Check the #s on the frame ,data plate and engine block will show original or not. only paper work you could have for bb is sales invoice or spid and the spid is easy to duplicate.I think it is a nice truck at 13.5

bruceman1968 · 05-17-2011, 10:52 AM

same truck

almost Exactly what i'm going to do with mine. Won't be a super, be will be a blue and white bb shorty. I'll stick to the white interior also.

Longhorn Man · 05-17-2011, 12:57 PM

there's no numbers on truck engines.

that match the frame, but there is a stamped suffix code with a date code and assy plant code.
And that number/code is also on the protect o plate for our trucks.

Longhorn Man · 05-17-2011, 01:56 PM

Bruce, you are 100% right, I forgot about the protecto plate... so few people have them. I guess I should have said there are no numbers on the frame that'll match the engine as implied above.

Thank God, You scared the crap out of me Andy

I thought all the research I've been doing was for nought.

Longhorn Man · 05-17-2011, 03:27 PM

LOL, you were right. I normally forget all about the protecto plate since maybe 45 trucks still have them. (45, give or take a few thousand)

**leddzepp** · 05-17-2011, 03:34 PM

that number/code is also on the factory build sheet.
