Momentum is your best friend if you try, just don't stop!

haha i got stuck up to my rear bumper in my moms yard lol

momentum is your friend lol ya wanna zip cross it asap have somebody bring a chain to drag your.......................

Camper Power · 04-21-2009, 08:47 PM

its pretty funny to see my 2wd truck sit higher stock than most of the stock 4x4s at school, and the lifted ones arnt much higher. just shows how much i need to get a lowering kit.

Helps to have good tires too.

texanidiot25 · 04-21-2009, 09:21 PM

Tire's help little once you loose momentum. Also, no sharp turns.

But if you get stuck, and can't get out with the back and forth, just stop and start digging lol.

72chevyk10 · 04-21-2009, 09:28 PM

thats what happened to me then we finnally got my dads truck over to mine and got it yarded out

**americanmusc1e** · 04-24-2009, 10:09 AM

Our Senior class (all 13 of us) took some of our Senior pictures on my truck

oh i get it.

ed2552 · 04-25-2009, 09:46 AM

Wow, I just caught this thread.

I guess I'm one of the lucky (or unlucky, depending on how you look at it), as I have a non 67-72 DD. I DD a 2003 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi. The original plan when I got my 67 was to DD it, but it's in too poor of condition for that to work safely. I do still love these trucks, though. We're actually going to an auction to bid on a 67 c20 in almost mint condition.

Oh, I'm Ed, I'm 17, and yes, I am addicted

I have driven my heap to school a couple times, but its a 50 mile round trip and it takes its tole....... my truck is usually a jack stand racer

Mondo · 04-25-2009, 06:57 PM

Since none of you young lads live nearby I can safely show this picture of my girls (daughter is going to Junior Prom today). The truck is her daily driver (yes, she's my princess)

LuckyHenriksen · 04-25-2009, 07:02 PM

Hmmm your right its a good thing we live far away......

ed2552 · 04-25-2009, 07:37 PM

You're VERY lucky you live 3000 miles away. I'm a junior too, lol.

72chevyk10 · 04-25-2009, 08:46 PM

i think im in love

onlyifihadachevy · 04-25-2009, 11:21 PM

i live like 2-3hrs away i think. And next sunday i should be posting pictures of my truck with a little mud or something broken.

ed2552 · 04-25-2009, 11:29 PM

I think now that I have a decent running-driving 67 ( http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=340915 ), I may actually drive that to school a few times, lol.

1970chevyboy · 04-26-2009, 06:42 PM

Im 17, i live in Katy, Texas(D2 state football champs), im a junior. the truck is a 1970 C10: 5.0L sbc, th400 trans, and airbags all around. ive been working on the truck for about 2 years now. im almost done and hope to be driving her real soon.

I have prom too. You know it would be cool if she had a guy with another 67-72...

You raised her well.

And is that a little Caterham?

trenz68 · 04-26-2009, 07:35 PM

Sup guys..my dad gave me his truck after being in the garage for 16 on my 15th b-day. Been working on it since then. Drove it while a freshman in college. Im 23 now and have finally finished the 68 stepside.

72chevyk10 How much space do you have with those tires? do you think 35 x 14.5s would clear or are they a little to wide? I have friends that dont think i can even clear 35s with a 4 inch lift so i wanna try to put wide 35's on it... im not to worried about rims because mine are 12 inches wide wide a 5 inch offset lol
