My New Truck
Short Haul’s post on this forum inspired me to post my inherited truck from my late father who purchased this 1973 truck back in 1975 and its been in the family ever since. The truck started life in California. The owner moved to Colorado. He was going to start having to commute into Denver and since the truck gets poor gas mileage. That didn’t make sense for him so he and my Dad worked out a deal. Shortly thereafter I put my name on this truck. Truck is mostly original and just rolled over 100,000 miles. 3/4 ton, 350 V8 4.11 gears Camper Special 8200 GVW.
Since this truck was a joke in the snow, it never got driven in the winter and for the last 20 years it has been garaged. The only real issues are the paint is somewhat faded and most all of the chrome trim has the black painted strip faded out of the chrome strip. Pic with the camper-shell was how I received it. I just drove her back. Posted via Mobile Device The last 2 photo's are how it sits today. Last edited by Factory Guy; 05-11-2023 at 03:38 PM. |
