Took a trip, came home with an interesting 70 CST

[Vintage Windmills]

Left MN Sat night with my restored 71 C20 in tow. I'm storing it for the winter in my Mom's spare mouse proof garage in iowa. Sunday I visited her and Monday I went with some family to Topeka. We went to visit my aunt in but I worked it into the trip to pick up a tailgate from Ackattack and few things from Teeitup. From Meriden we left with a cab for Eric (toomuchstuff), 3 bumpers, Cst door panels, neat mirrors, T3's, engine stand. thanks again Randy, always nice to stop in and visit. We hit the road at 6:15am that morning and made it home at 11:45 pm.

Today on my way home (with an empty trailer) I stopped by the auction I read about a month ago to bid on a CST 10. I was half an hour late to the auction so I walked up and immediately got a number. By the time I did that, they were 1 item away from the truck so I barely had time to peek at it before the bidding started. The first thing I noticed is that its not a very attractive color scheme IMO but it is unusual. I set a number in my head and got it for a little less than that Now that I've got her home its in a little better shape than I thought. I can't believe how original it is, doesn't even have HID or a bumper sticker. The only thing is the valve covers are blue and the GVW numbers on the side. Has a qjet, is that original? Also the four core rad isn't on the SPID so I'm not sure thats original either. Its a shame the back half is rusty and the cab is shot. Its strange though since the front fenders are 98% rust free, even pass side cup. Still has the buckets and even protect o plate! Now I need to figure out what I'm going to do with this thing. On a separate note, it was a pleasure to put my 2500hd and winch that I built to work. I really like both of them.
