Pics of my "new" 69 cst/10 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**too much stuff** · 04-10-2005, 10:41 PM

Just picked this one up. A 69 cst/10 with 81xxx actual miles. I am the third owner, and the previous owner had it for 15 years. It is a minnesota truck so it does have rust. It has a 396/400 setup that runs great. Also has a/c, power steering and power brakes. At some point in its life it had cruise control and a tilt column added. I believe the dealer installed those. Just thought i would share with everyone...

**Joesjunk** · 04-10-2005, 10:56 PM

Looks pretty good!! You don't see red on red very often. Are you going to keep it??

RicksTrucks · 04-10-2005, 11:05 PM

yes, what he asked?

**too much stuff** · 04-10-2005, 11:09 PM

Joe, i am going to drive it for awhile. It has had body work done over the years and the color slowly changed to orange. If you look close, the hood is the right color and the fenders arent. Also the tailgate and boxside don't match. Typical for a farm truck to have paint repairs over the years. I see it also has a 70 grill in it.

**Joesjunk** · 04-10-2005, 11:12 PM

I have a nice 72 1/2t 4x4 chassis that needs a nice driver body!!

teeitup · 04-10-2005, 11:14 PM

NICE find Eric!!!!!!!!!!! That would fun to drive!!!!

Brainchild · 04-10-2005, 11:24 PM

Wouldn't bother me to drive that around.

**too much stuff** · 04-10-2005, 11:32 PM

Thanks for the compliments guys!!! I added a couple more for your viewing pleasure.
Randy, it IS fun to drive. Not sure on the gears, i'm guessing 3:08's. Its ok out of the hole, but at 50 mph when you boot it down it goes pretty good!

Swbman · 04-10-2005, 11:51 PM

very nice looking truck,congradulations on your new rig...

**Canadian694x4** · 04-11-2005, 12:40 AM

Sweet Find...Great looking Truck.

**Palf70Step** · 04-11-2005, 05:39 AM

The truck looks great. Much nicer than what I started with.

**special-K** · 04-11-2005, 06:39 AM

I wouldn`t call that a farm truck.Is that a Minnesota dealer nameplate?How many miles on that puppy?

BLAZERMAN · 04-11-2005, 01:17 PM

Thats a sharp truck Eric, wheres the rust?
It looks like a keeper to me.

**too much stuff** · 04-11-2005, 10:52 PM

Rob, the rust is mainly down low and underneath. Rocker supports and cross sills for the box.
Special K, the dealer name plate is from montevideo MN. That was my dads hometown when he was a kid. I called my mom to ask her about it and turns out her and my dad knew the owners back in the 60's.
Thanks again for the compliments guys!!!!
