Trucks Heading east, hopefully today :)
It's been a year and a half, but hopefully the trucks will be picked up today from my brother's in Las Vegas enroute to my place upstate New York.
It started with the orange '69 C20, but then I fell in love with the 67/68 front-end, then came the '68 C20 Utility, and while searching I stumbled on a '68 C10 50th. I'll be passing the '69 to my older brother (here in NY) so I'll have the two '68's. I really wasn't going to focus on the '68 Utility (an original 396 4sp) but I was just out west getting the trucks ready for shipping and the darn thing runs perfect (just have to remember NO syncros into 1st ). I drove it all over while in Vegas, even took a drive out to Red Rock Canyon . Very cool truck and I am simply amazed at how well the 396 runs. Other than a tad of smoke at startup (likely valve seals), it runs smooth, quiet and no smoke, ...unreal. So, yes, I'm a bit excited, ...can't wait to get them home in the garage... Photos of the trucks below, but I am hoping to have a few shots loaded on the carrier later today (fingers crossed ) |
