Looks like $300 bucks is all the old lady wants for it. It's starting to rust really bad. Not sure what motor, but she says its a big one

Does anybody know what year it is? I'm pretty sure it's 2wd. All I know is that it's cheap, dark green, and "runs pretty good". Any ideas would be nice.

Sorry such a bad picture, I'll try to get a better one tomorrow.

I say 71-72 cause the grill is open

matt_field · 02-07-2005, 09:08 PM

go check that out!, may be a good buy... where in minnesota are ya located at? im in Detroit Lakes

72gord · 02-07-2005, 09:08 PM

From the grille it looks like a 71 or 72, but hard to tell for sure. Cheap enough though!

1STtimePRo'71 · 02-07-2005, 09:14 PM

The grill has a big hole out of it and I just remembered that she said that the pass. door lock doesn't work(like that matters to me). But I think all in all it would have to be a parts truck because of how rusty the body is getting on it. 90 percent of the body is starting to go brown. I think it's too late to catch it before it gets any worse. At any rate I can use the steering stuff and have an extra set of just about anything I guess. But If it runs ok it would be worth the $300 though?

Matt I'm south of Mankato 15 miles. We should hook up sometime and tip a few back.

Well worth the price for a parts truck...

67ChevyC10Stepside · 02-07-2005, 09:30 PM

if it has a big block it's worth a lot more than that......

krue · 02-07-2005, 09:45 PM

If you can't use of sell $300 worth of stuff off of it you aren't trying.

SLS · 02-08-2005, 04:51 AM

1/2 Ton, eh?

Looks like a 71-72, that is if the front clip has not been swapped.

If so, you've probably got $300 worth of 5-lug DISC brake goodies on it.

SCORE!

Longhorn Man · 02-08-2005, 05:57 AM

Am I crazy, or does that look like a SWB?

Martin64 · 02-08-2005, 07:23 AM

Joe67 · 02-08-2005, 09:10 AM

hotrodchev · 02-08-2005, 11:15 AM

Hey Cory,

Your truck looks familiar to me. Is that the same '72 3/4-ton 4x4 with 350, 4-spd. and tachometer that was on Carsoup.com a short while back for $700? I talked to the seller about a month ago and it sounded like a good buy for the money.

1STtimePRo'71 · 02-08-2005, 11:32 AM

Yes, the same truck!

shortymac83 · 02-08-2005, 12:51 PM

that's a good deal. I got mine for $300, and it's a lot worse than Ithought it was, but I'd still pay $300 for it again, if I had the chance.

67ChevyC10Stepside · 02-08-2005, 01:11 PM

iit has tach and you are questioning 300 bucks? what's wrong with you boy?

FRENCHBLUE72 · 02-08-2005, 06:52 PM

Have you scored that ride yet that is sounding like one hellva deal..

CHEVYE · 02-08-2005, 07:37 PM

it`d be in the driveway already if it were me,

and this would be more of a "hey look what i just got for $300" thread

1STtimePRo'71 · 02-08-2005, 07:48 PM

Patience, patience. This nice old lady doesnt know if she wants to sell her hubbies old truck or give it to one of the grandkids. I've been itchin too, hardly slept lastnite. She was supposed to make up her mind today but I cant get ahold of her. You guys will know that I bought it before my old lady does, dont worry about that!

*Shane* · 02-08-2005, 08:11 PM

Hell's Bells ... I have paid more money for "parts trucks" that didn't run.

RUN, don't walk, to that ol' lady and pay her!

1STtimePRo'71 · 02-08-2005, 08:58 PM

I've already got $150 in parts into my new truck. Still got another $200 left to buy!

Thank got I gotta bunch of money saved up.
