Our 72 2wd that got away, any help locating it? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**MCB Matt** · 03-25-2015, 01:41 PM

We bought this truck years ago, not long after it was restored. We changed the rear stance and the wheels, among a few other things... Never really got it exactly where we wanted it!

The guy we purchased it from was just flipping it but it was a great deal so we drove up to washington and bought it!

After owning it for about 3 years, we decided to let it go.

I don't have his contact info but I know it made it into Custom Classic Trucks Magazine not long after we sold it.

If anyone out there knows where it is, I am happy to pay a finders fee if we can find it and make a deal to buy it back!

This pic was taken out in front of our old shop and is currently on Pintrest!
Thanks

Good luck finding it. I have been looking for one like this for years.

Nice ride. Good luck.

Yea, it was pretty easy to sell! We got such a steal on it too! We are open to others in the market too. We just know how nice the paint/body on that truck was! I had the receipt from the job, it was about $17,000 for paint and body up in Oregon at under $50/hr!

We have a few offers from our post on our Facebook page from guys looking to sell theirs. We will see!

Matt, I'm actually the guy that bought it from you. After a year I sold 4 out of the 5 of my trucks, that blazer included. All I know is the guy came down from Alaska and paid $25k cash. That was about 4 years ago now.

I'll see if I can find anything as far as a number or anything for the guy.

Oh, ok! $hit, Alaska? Well, I have a thread on my Facebook page and a guy that claims he saw it in Alabama at a show about 2 weeks ago, I think he said.. About that.

Kim misses it, would be nice to get back but a LOT of $$ would go into it! We haven't even had time to shop the market yet, I know there are LS trucks out there now, one customer of mine posted his on my thread as being a avail for sale too, blown LS. Clean truck, still needs a lot of kims touches.

The hunt begins! For either the old one or a new!

Any info you have would be great if they are ok passing it on that is, of course!

Thanks a bunch for replying!
