Hello from Norway!
Been lurking around this forum for quite some time.
Finally picked up my C-10 yesterday and thought I'd show it off. It's a '71 Cheyenne Super with an original BB 402. California black plate truck imported to Norway in the fall of 2014. I'm already in love. Here are some pics.     Per-Erik Fredrikstad, Norway |

Re: Hello from Norway!
Thanx guys, I really appreciate your comments. This seems like a friendly forum to a newbie.
@hdff: If it's a Super or not, I don't know, I have to trust the PO. He claimed it to be a Super, and imported it as one, but of course there's no SPID inside the glovebox door. Anyway else I can identify it? I love it even if it turns out to be no Super.  Here are som pics of the interior and engine. The door cards and seat are obviously not sporting the original upholstery, not even sure if it's the correct seat, but i plan to address that. There's also a set of Mickey Thompson Valve Covers that's not correct as well, I think they're kinda cool so I might keep those.    Per-Erik Fredrikstad, Norway

Re: Hello from Norway!
Nice ride!! Looks like a great example of the genre'. And just so you know, it's OK to love your truck but no casual "Fun" I hear the Scandinavians are fond of that.

Re: Hello from Norway!
White wall tires? HAS ANYONE HUGGED YOU TODAY?
I dad loves white walls so I grew up with my truck wearing them. Your truck is absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for posting pics for us. It's always a pleasure to meet a fellow enthusiast from so far away.

Re: Hello from Norway!
Even if it has the extra mods and improvements that is still one gorgeous truck.
Would be interested to know if you guys have to burn the e-10 ethanol gas over there. Its been a bain since the government mandate here. Someone here may know whether the nameplate on the glove box would be indicative of a true Super truck. |

Gotta sport white walls, they look really good on these trucks. Glad to have this forum available. Quote:
No need to run ethanol over here, unless you want to save some money. I run premium 98 octane in my truck. Quote:
I've ridden this truck all year since I bought it. I live in the south eastern Norway so we don't have that much snow, thankfully.  I've been doing some slight alterations on my truck over the last year, not much so far, but there's more to come this spring. I painted the headlight surrounds black. I think it looks better than the all aluminum finish.  I painted the steelies red to make them pop more, and I think it suits the truck.   Since this last picture was taken I had a mishap with the paint on the bed, due to a lousy painters prep job. What to do with that until I get a chance to re-spray? Emphasize it with some free hand lettering.  Per-Erik Fredrikstad, Norway

Re: Hello from Norway!
Sweet truck!
Off topic here: Are you familiar with the troll? Concrete natural gas rig. Built in a fjord and floated out into the north sea and planted by the great norwegians(about 1995). I've always been into that kind of stuff
