If you found a genie…

A c10 genie to be precise, and he gave you one wish, to have any 67-72 gm truck you wanted. What you you have him bring you?

I would ask for a brand new 67 c10 just as it rolled out of the factory, with zero miles on it.

Shortbed fleetside 2wd
Dark aqua poly and white 2-tone
Panoramic window
CST trim
Buddy buckets
Side trim
AC
PB
327/auto
Full wheel covers
Chrome bumpers
Wood bed floor

And I wouldn’t modify a thing!

How about you…

Re: If you found a genie…

I would take a 72 K20 auto with all the options in the book, Super etc. Color would be dark green metalic (forgot the actual name) with a white top.

Re: If you found a genie…

Another vote for Barbara Eden. Tony Nelson was an idiot, but he did drive a nice GTO. But I would have fallen in love with Jeannie at first sight.

On a side note, Barbara Eden in real life is a really nice person with a great sense of humor.

Re: If you found a genie…

I'd get the red '72 shortbed stepside Cheyenne that my dad's long-time associate drove to work with him every day when I was a kid. That truck is what sparked my interest in these trucks. I can still remember the way it smelled of cigarette smoke and chewing gum.

Re: If you found a genie…

Oh, yeah, back on topic... I'd go with a 72 Blazer, of course. Most any color would do for me, although I'm fond of my dark yellow. All the options - mine's pretty close, but there are a few I'd like to have.

And I still wouldn't mind if Barbara Eden delivered it.

Re: If you found a genie…

My wish would be a wrecker truck 1967 C-30 ton black just like the junk yard guy Bob Munson bought new .. the Junk yard was about a mile from where I lived back then. I thought that was the neatest looking truck I had ever seen. I went with him to pull out a old car that was giving to him a few times to help.. he kept it shined up black too.

Re: If you found a genie…

Well I'll be the odd man out here. I have already owned, bought, built and sold some very nice 67-72 trucks and Blazers so my itch has been scratched.

These are out of my league so a Genie would be my only hope of ever owning one.

We all have opinions and various likes but my opinion is there was never a better/greater looking car ever Hot Rodded than a 40-41 Willys Coupe.

My only problem would be making up my mind between a Pro Street or a Gasser so I'd ask the Genie for one of each.

If the Genie says only one....The Pro Street gets a special parking place in my barn.

Re: If you found a genie…

But if its a C10 genie I should be able to have up to an 87.
I don't really want a 67-72....

Re: If you found a genie…

Hmm. Well, I can't necessarily decide on one, but this 1969 step side sure does it for me, assuming a 396 and AC.

Re: If you found a genie…

I'd be requesting a 67 Burban in 503 with a white top (Sound familiar? ) and for all the sheet metal to be stainless steel!

Re: If you found a genie…

I’d just be happy with my K20 as built originally. Only things I’d probably add are a tach, and to upgrade from Cheyenne to Cheyenne super.

Pretty genie but she'd end up being a back seat driver in a vehicle with no back seat.
