67 bought today for $300 patina'd
72 sold last week
70 4x4 still have.....

Here is one I parted.

**Roland** · 02-13-2009, 11:21 PM

This one's a Highlander that I bought last month. It has a new 350 crate and P/S, P/B, TH350 New "original style" seat cover. no rust! I couldn't believe it. The guy put in a new drive shaft, it has new brakes, all new hoses, new master cylinder, etc. The kid's great grandfather bought it new in Georgia and it's been passed down and down. Yeah, I know it sounds fishy. But I have the title and all the reciepts tied to the VIN. I raised up the carpet and the green paint is still on the floor all the way across the rockers! Oh, yeah, it has a new set of Goodyears on it that don't even have the blue washed off the white letters. Am I happy, or what? Oh, the bad news - it cost me $2900.

A shot of the tailgate on a long Stepside bed I have off a`69 C/20.It was Special Paint light grey and the wheels where red from factory:

I used to have tons of trucks and have had tons over the years.The only ones I have are in my signature now,except for my `92 work truck and`91 Suburban.I have 5 less trucks than I did when I joined here.I sold the Highlander last spring to a friend.I never expected to sell that gem.Here`s my`72 GMC that is still original:

67 CST with panoramic back window....

oldno7 · 02-14-2009, 05:45 PM

OK I have to ask what a panoramic back window is. I'm guessing just a big window

You are correct. In 67 it was an option, with the small back window being the standard.

That is nice!A`67 K2500 Custom,all original.Is that a 292?Someone knew what they wanted back in`67.

tcb-1 · 02-15-2009, 10:19 AM

I'm with you, Tim. That truck was built with a purpose in mind. I don't know what it is, but that truck really catches my eye.

oldno7 · 02-15-2009, 11:01 AM

Their are several great rides on here! Willys47 that is one of the best originals I've seen. I think I read about your story the other day with you being at work all day, and not having internet. This should be the truck of the year for sure. You all have great rides! oldno7

67C10SWB · 02-19-2009, 02:09 AM

Hey all! Check this 67 that was for sale in Depot Bay, Oregon last summer. I tried to call the guy but no answer or price. Looked like a good candidate for a Patina or just original truck. mike

Hey all! Faded paint, huh? How about my weather-beaten 1972 Chevy Cheyenne Camper Special sporting her original mustard yellow paint? Geez, that okra sure does grow on you.
