Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II

Nice truck. Its great you have kept it so original. Try and keep it that way as much as you can and as much as your heart will let you. Fads come and go but original body frame sheet metal etc is always in style and the most valuable. 5-10 years from now you probably wont get 10 cent on the dollar for these 22+ chopped up air bag patina trucks most kids are doing today. Just like when I was young. used to put a then new 88 up step side on a 67-72 short bed. Or put an 88 up frame under the 67-72. Or just simply cutting out the radio panel for a CD player or customized dashes with an integrated center console wrapped into it with big seats etc. Who wants that now?

Or just simply cutting out the radio panel for a CD player or customized dashes with an integrated center console wrapped into it with big seats etc. Go back even further to diamond crush interior with candy apple paint! You get the idea. But who wants that now?

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II

Now I feel like I officially belong, rather than just reading and looking at other trucks Picked up this 72 K10 for my next project. It's gonna need a new floor, rockers and cab corners, but the bed is pretty decent

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II

Here's my 71' 3/4 ton WIP when I got it it came with a 1985 305 motor (Which I found out a few months later putting on a Edelbrock manifold and carb)I need to get it a better paint job and drop in the 327/300 65' vette motor a end gave me I will keep it he same color I painted it..it was originally metallic Olive an somebody porch painted it olive drab. I have to say tracking down the original hubcaps was difficult and expensive (Ebay)

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II

Our first Chevy Classic Truck

1972 C-10 longbox.

Just picked it up last week. My Son and I just did ALL of the brakes and most of the lines...Love the 350 V8 Tone but are open to suggestions on how to lower the volume a little!!

Good Times

Like the truck! Those old Cragars just never go out of style.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II

Nice score on the 72, kind of like the wheels, have seen a lot worse..but on that note everyone has their choice and style.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II

Well sure someone will like the wheel style and more fitting for their build, easy sale for you, so what other wheels do you have, repost when they are on if you get a chance, never to many pic's of nice trucks.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II

1967 C10 Longbed. Unrestored Southwestern farm truck that we picked up to get it safe, running good, and looking a little cooler.

Day we got it


After washing the years of filth off it you couldn't see in the above pic



And now a little closer to the ground. A few more mods to do before I am satisfied

Nice truck Pimie, is it black or really dark grey, hard to tell in the light, but nice either color.
