 Just bought a 1968 C10, from the second owner. Looks like an unmolested truck with no rust. Well a little on the driver door bottom outer skin. The engine has been changed to CMT 1974 according to number ID info located on this site.I had a 1969 GMC with 3 speed and a six as a work truck 15 years ago, and liked it so mutch had to have another. Now that I'm retired ( work a litttle to support my hobby) and will be restoring it as a daily driver. Thanks for letting me join your group, I really apprecate all the advice you guys offer up. I hope you can help me out too.I know I'll be having questions. Thanks I tried to include some pictures so this is my second try. Hope it works this time.Us old folks kinda slow at these new computer contraptions. Last edited by 8door; 03-26-2004 at 09:20 PM. |

Another Welcome
from Virginia Beach, Virginia. This is habit forming. Before you know it you'l need a full time job just to keep up with the parts you buy from all the good people on here. Trust me it is addictive. Now I own two of them. Kerry

Hey 8door...WELCOME to the land of cyber Trucks.
Greetings from Ohio... Nice looking truck. As a matter of fact any 67-72 Chevy/GMC Truck is a good looking truck. You will find this board very helpful. Me...I know enough to be dangerous.   :p
