Y'all know that blue isn't my favorite color. Despite that, I love this truck.

Nice truck!, but $10k? Def nice though

Pyrotechnic · 02-26-2010, 11:04 PM

It's worth close to that, I'm sure he's got some bargaining cushion built into his price.

Not loving the shaved mirrors or the speakers in the door panels, but other than that it's really nice.

kenm78 · 02-26-2010, 11:10 PM

Very nice.

**old Rusty C10** · 02-26-2010, 11:11 PM

I thought for sure your thread was going to be about this truck:

Beautiful. I think his price is "OK" but I cant blame him for listing it high. I wouldnt take 10K for my 86 with the 6.0 in it now... Looks like a very nicely done truck.

you never get what you put into these things, its the nature of the beast. I think this truck looks good .

Driveway Dreams · 02-27-2010, 12:09 AM

Wow, nice blue on that truck. It reminds me of Slugish's truck a little bit. I like the placement of the speakers for the function of them but it is not the best looking spot for sure. Overall, a nice truck.

SCOTI · 02-27-2010, 12:49 AM

That truck was (is?) local to the Dallas/Garland area. Redline Auto Group were the guys that started (finished) it. It was for sale @ the GG's FtWorth swap area too....

Murf87, a new member, just bought that truck.

I called and talked to the guy about it when the shop that built it had it for sale. Seems like a really nice truck.

The 'previous' owners quizzed me on the drop & wheel/tire dimensions for my 74. The truck was pretty clean in stock form. They kept the updates clean & simple. I remember seeing it a couple of weeks ago @ an alignment shop here in Garland when I was driving to the bank mid-day.

That's odd! Wonder why he's showing the old pics that have different wheels and no cowl hood.

boatpuller · 02-27-2010, 11:37 AM

STOCKISH · 02-27-2010, 01:51 PM

Looks great with the cowl hood too.

The pics from the CL ad must be from before Murf87 bought it is all I can assume. They just didn't delete the ad.

At first I didn't think it was the same truck just really close, until I saw the license plate.
