Re: Picked up another 72 C10
Not a huge update but with a 1 year old and another one on the way any progress is a miracle! Finally put on the used chrome bumper I had set aside to go with the rear sport bumper, not perfect but OEM and good enough for me. I also cleaned the interior up and reinstalled the sun visors. Put on a cleaned up a set of yellow caps I picked up and made blue. Also chased a few oil leaks and bled the brakes. I was happy to get out on such a nice day and get work done, managed to detail the other vehicles and rake the yard... happy wife happy life...

Re: Picked up another 72 C10
Well, after my wife told me we're expecting our second child I knew this needed to happen... I sold the cleanest 72 out of the handful I've owned over the years. Only took a few hours on craigslist, it went to a couple of guys that have several 60-72 GM trucks so it's in good hands. I enjoyed the truck and hate that I didn't get to finish my vision for it but I got to enjoy it for a while so I can't complain. Doubt I'll ever see another one that straight and rust free for what I had tied up in it... Farewell blue truck!

Re: Picked up another 72 C10
Back in the 90's My brother had a 72 that was almost a twin to this. Same color combo/ stripe, same engine trans. It had a light blue interior and also lower trim moldings. Compeletly rust free including rockers. He bought it wrecked for $500 and we found a complete perfect front clip, incluisng inner and outer grill for $150 (!) we straightened the bent frame horns with a torch and come along. He had it repainted in stock combo. Lotta good memories in that truck. Swapped in a performance cam and the 3sp for a th400 he had and added a 650 holley and intake for the 2 barrel. He added tilt tach and a full foam seat with new cheyenne super cover. It got stolen stripped and recovered. Cab rolling chassis engine and trNs went for $2300 at insurance Auction.
