Re: how much did you drive your truck this summer ? and what type of driving was it ?

I wish I had put that many on mine. My first legal run was on 6-24, and I've only put about 200 miles on it since. Not bad considering I work 60+ hours every week, and had a crap battery for about two months... It's all been pleasure driving thus far, just feeling out kinks and such. I still need tires and rear brakes, then I'll take it for longer runs.

Zero miles. 70cstjr might have put 20 miles on the truck as he is just trying to keep my truck loose until it goes to the body shop this winter. The it;s going to be

Re: how much did you drive your truck this summer ? and what type of driving was it ?

i got my 69 lwb an april and have logged about 7k on it just as a driver/workin ,hauling scrap and for fun. haven't driven it much in the last month since i got my shortened k20 back togather. drove it close to 800 miles so far just going here and there. always looking for a excuse to get in it and drive it all i can before the both come in the shop for some more loven this winter. thinkind about putting one togather with leftover parts for a plow truck so i can still drive an icon all winter

Every day. It's so much fun, even when I'm going places I don't want to go, I have fun getting there.

To work on Fridays, car shows, and Lowe's runs.. Probably 1k this summer. Now that it's finally cooled off, I'll drive it more.

This old thread deserves to be resurfaced since "See Tens" pictures deserve to be on a poster.

Amazing shots!
