Just bought my first old truck!
Well, I've been lurking here for a while, and I've wanted one of these since I first saw one on the cover of 4 wheelr when I was 14. Just bought it this afternoon;in 3 weeks I'm going back with tags to pick it up and drive it home
![]() 1969 CST/10, it's a 4x4 SWB stepper. All original truck, 307 / SM465 combo. Runs and drives pretty good. And showing less than 68k original miles! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Everything is there and just as it should be, for which I am quite happy. Bad news (no surprise for a New York truck) is rust. Rot in the front fenders, rear fenders, floors, etc. All of it has been patched or repaired and the truck is solid, but it was not done with new panels, etc so once I take it off the road next summer I have my work cutout for me. Good news is the story behind it. 2nd owner, older gentleman. It's a one family truck. The current owner was actually at the factory in Tarrytown with his uncle when the truck was built back in '69 ![]() I have the original chassis overhaul manual for the truck sitting here on my desk, and all the other owners manuals and shop manuals are around somewhere, the owner just had to find them. Needless to say, I'm stoked
