I have issues! New 65 c10 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Goat herder · 11-23-2011, 04:23 PM

Ok, first of all, I'm aware I have issues.* I really need to avoid craigslist because I did it again.* My wife is too supportive and told me to make the purchase.* We already have 17 vehicles on the property---mostly antique gm trucks.* I already had the barns full.* But, I couldnt help falling in love with another.* I ussually dont even look at 64-66's, preferring 62, 63, 60,61, in that order, but this one was listed as a 63 so had to take a look.* Its a 65 c10 longbed, 292 4 spee with no frills.* Looks to be originally green with an older respray in orange.* It was a good deal and it runs an drives.* Still need to go and get it sometime before snow. Gonna have to sell my 59 edsel,and, or, 59 buick hardtop so I have a place to store the 65.* I'll get some more picts once I get it back home, because I know you all are picture voyuers.

I say buy 17 more Mr. Sanford so I can live vicariously through you.
By the way, how is Lamont?
Cool truck!

There's a whole bunch of hubcaps for it on Ebay. Search under 60's Chevrolet. Oh and man I wish your wife would stop forcing you to buy trucks, that's just not right! Something seriously wrong with that gal! lol

Nice looking truck, looks to be in good condition. That 292 is a torque monster

I'll have to live a 100 years or more to get to them all. I've learned to be content with getting them road worthy, and driving them as is. The major projects tend to fall further down the list everytime I bring something new home.
I have a job that allows me a lot of free time to search the net, which seems to be gettiing me in trouble. I did notice the correct hubcaps for these trucks are a bit easier to find than the 61-63 caps.

I think I'd be investing in some yogurt.
