Re: This was one of my eccentric ideas ..what was yours?
I bought a truck for my truck. And to satisfy my need to drive these while I rebuilt a C10. Really, a pretty and convincing blond "bought it for me". Long story, the former owner wouldn't sell it to me because ????? I told her the story, she insisted on getting it, and she paid less than what I offered. Did I mention she was pretty and convincing? Only took her a minute or two, true story.
Match made in heaven, I admit to taking some parts off it to restore my C10, and it rarely failed to surprise me, considering its condition. Started and stopped consistently, carried lots of BA loads, and fun to drive, couldn't have asked for more. Funny thing was, the license plate read 400, like the engine badges on both trucks. "Destiny destiny, no escaping that for me". It was a 72 Super, well optioned, but most components didn't work, no shortage of rust. I can say I miss it some, maybe I'll buy another driver someday. Nice Vet BTW.
