Sold my 71 gmc
Today I sold my 71 gmc. I'm going to miss olive. Reason for selling. I did not drive it enough and was just taking up space that being said I still did not want to let it go. There will be another someday I did keep the buckets seats and original gmc tail gate along with a bunch other other odds and ends.
https://youtu.be/yuPSutkS-LY. Hope old olive has has a good nother 50 years. RIP 3rd gear.

Re: Sold my 71 gmc

Re: Sold my 71 gmc

Re: Sold my 71 gmc
A guy local to me bought it for his kid to drive around for a while. Then he is going to use it. So I might still get to see it once in a while.

Re: Sold my 71 gmc
All I know is the next one will be more expensive.
I sold a few of mine several years ago and all they’ve done is go up in price. If you have a nice one you better hold on to it.

Re: Sold my 71 gmc
Yep, if you want to drive one you need to hold onto it. They're getting crazy expensive. I couldn't afford my Blazer if I had to buy it now.
Still, I'm glad your 71 is going to someone who will drive it and use it. I support the free market and I understand the business model, but I still dislike flippers.

Re: Sold my 71 gmc
I sold a few, the last one I liked but I smile every day about the glorious divorce it paid for. No more redhead, and no more selling trucks lol
