Re: Vintage picture thread
Forgive me if someone already posted this link, I didn't see it.
These vintage pic threads are great, reminding us when things were great and remembering things you had totally forgotten, younger days, etc. Not meant to direct any traffic to another website, but here's the king of all "old street scenes / days gone by" threads......you'll be up all night. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/ubbt...145#Post312145 I'll do an intro and a frame build thread soon, I just started on my 68 swb and have been lurking and reading for a while now.

Re: Vintage picture thread
Found in my dad's pictures. He bought a new 72' C10 at S & J Chevrolet, Cerritos, Ca. Second one was for a Chevrolet TV commercial in Mojave Desert, I remember him telling me they drove in the shape of a bowtie across the flats. The third was in 74' heading to LA on 395, it was dark and they hit two black angus cows. First one was dead and the second one got up and ran away. Had to be towed to Lone Pine, Ca.

Re: Vintage picture thread
Had a new radiator, fan and misc. put in at dealer there and drove back to Reno the next week and had a body shop repair it. He sold it when he bought a new 76' K10 I currently have. I'd like to see that commercial too.

Re: Vintage picture thread
Wow,this thread sure has drifted from 67-72 GM Trucks. How about a '55 Chevy 210 Wagon? Nothing special. I bought it when I met the gal I married who had two kids. It was out in a field with no motor,in flat black,with the side windows painted. I took the 350/TH350,console/shifter,seats,and wheels from a wrecked '75 Monte Carlo,did some body work,and slapped a root beer metallic paint job on it. It was green and I wanted to find the trim and paint it back to original,but ended up selling it.

Re: Vintage picture thread
I don't have any vintage pics with 67-72's, but here are a couple of old pics of my '62.
The black and white was taken in the mid 70's when the truck belonged to my first cousin Ray and Dan. The color pics are around 1982 when the truck belonged to my brother around the time he graduated high school. He had recently painted it in his Vo-Tech auto body class...
