Cool 67-72 work truck! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Saw this truck the other day when I took a different route than normal, thought it was cool to see one of these trucks still in service doing what they were meant for....work!

Also saw this....interesting....monte carlo (I think). Sorry about the crappy pic, but the bushes were in the way.

Just figured I'd share.

Yeah I thought that car was pretty ridiculous, but to each there own right? I wouldn't be seen driving that thing, and that's saying something since when I took the picture my truck didn't even have a bed on it

. But I guess some people probably think we are crazy for dropping money into these old trucks too.

I find it best to make no comment when I see something totally ridiculous and a waste of a decent car.so,I won't say anything.

It's pretty funny.I think that 40 year old outfitted for a purpose work truck looks better.

I think that's a Buick Regal or Century. Either way, I can't remember when I've seen a more ridiculous looking ride. Now, the truck on the other hand, I agree that it's cool to still see one of our trucks being used. It just reminded me, I saw a church bus going down the road the other day that was the heavy duty cab of one of our trucks.

Just wait until the guy opens the door and it has lambo doors, shagg carpet, chain steering wheel, fuzzy dice hanging from the rearview mirror and the guy has a silk jump suit and a gold $ chain
