Hello from yet another new member!
Hello everyone. I just purchased my first truck a few weeks ago... a 72 Chevy C-10 long bed. I picked this beauty up for $500, and the seller included two sets of tires ( I sold 1 set for $300!) and the original bench (he installed buckets). It had not been inspected in over 3 years, and has been sitting around for about 4 years. Our mechanic looked it over and could not find ANYTHING wrong (mechanically) with the truck!
Well, just wanted to say Hi. I have read a lot of the posts and I am looking forward to some input on how to best finish this truck. Regards, Greg |

I thought I scored a deal on my 69. I guess not. $200 invested after selling tires. Sweet truck and welcome from Florida.

Welcome to the board from a fellow Pennsylvanian no in Mississippi. Nice deal on the truck. Guess they figured that long without a PA inspection ment it was not worth much. Boy might the kick themselves later.
Looks good and welcome again. Enjoy the madness!!

Welcome from Central ohio. Got any pics of the bucket seats we were talking about in chat last night?
Why is it PA has so many sweet trucks? In one trip through PA and back, I saw more trucks, and NICER trucks then I have ever seen here in Ohio.  That sucks.I also agree....you need to send the last owner a thank you card.
