72 Luv'n the first snow - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

usdabeef · 11-05-2008, 06:11 PM

Snowing like a b**** here in Salt Lake today. Decided to get the ol girl out and get her wet. I know this is a 4x4 in a 2x4 section, but you gotta lov em not matter what they look like. Her hot 383 loves the cool hood in the winter time.

CPNEJR · 11-05-2008, 06:15 PM

thats a nice lookin truck you got there. i can't wait for it to snow here so i can play with my new 4X4

OrangeCrush1970 · 11-05-2008, 06:17 PM

That looks like a FUN truck... Keep your foot out of it in that snow!

big_al_71 · 11-05-2008, 06:19 PM

such a nice truck in the snow!!!!

c10addict · 11-05-2008, 06:33 PM

That thing is sweet!!! I would probably have it sleeping un a cover in the garage when its snowing!

1956cameo · 11-05-2008, 07:57 PM

That is one gorgeous truck. Its always better to have fun with em and allow a scratch or two than to only look at them. Didnt know that this was a 2x4 section only; thought it was a section for all 67-72s. If this is true we need to open the floodgates for our 4x4 bretheren.

nice truck,suitable for the terrain & climate in Utah

ashx2 · 11-05-2008, 10:45 PM

That's one super looking truck! It looks like it has a white afro though. LOL!

Great looking truck, and you can keep the white stuff out there.

Watch out for other drivers when you're out.

Sinister · 11-06-2008, 10:23 AM

Always freaks me out seeing these trucks in the snow. Brrrrr!!!!!

QKENUF4U · 11-06-2008, 11:04 AM

AWESOME TRUCK !! and it would NEVER see the snow if it was mine and i still lived back home in pa. would rot away in 2yrs winter driving back home. now on the other hand i only have to shovel sunshine now and it would live forever here in phoenix....

Jerry Jones · 11-06-2008, 11:16 AM

Ummm... is that white stuff the snow that you are talking about?

dan42 · 11-06-2008, 11:36 AM

Here's one that I took of my '71 Blazer, in the winter of '82, when I lived just off 33rd South, near the Freeway. Your picture brings back memories, thanks for sharing.

killer71 · 11-06-2008, 11:44 AM

Stout looking truck and love the color combo!

**Yukon Jack** · 11-06-2008, 12:31 PM

Those pictures are great. Really makes me realize I need to get my 69 K20 back on the road as I enjoy it so much in the winter!

**CPNE** · 11-06-2008, 12:37 PM

Nice! Do they treat the roads there?

Here's why the 2wd's hibernate here while the 4x4's work (play) around here. The 71 hidden by snow is stock height in case you all were wondering.

69chevytruckin · 11-06-2008, 01:22 PM

Very nice truck and it likes the cold climate cant beat that.

Heavy Evy · 11-06-2008, 03:03 PM

Haha another Utah boy, I was out doing donuts last night in my 71 C20. I have a love/hate relationship with snow its great for wheeling and doing donuts and thats about it.
