Good eye! Yup, that's where I work. I've seen your blue truck heading up and down hwy. 89 many times! After about 4" of snow, this truck turns into a snow plow, so I may be in trouble by the time I get off work on Thursday!

I see this blazer a lot on nice days. On crappy weather days there’s a very clean 24 valve ram in the same spot.

I happened to catch this beauty and assumed it was a fresh restoration. I was lucky enough to stop next to the gentleman at a red light and we had a quick conversation. This truck is in fact a garage find that he recently acquired. A 1969 C10 with 64,000 miles and original paint and said it ran like a top. He was on his way to get new tires, and he plans to take the truck to the Goodguys car show tomorrow at Texas Motor Speedway so anyone going please get more pics. I mentioned the forum to him in hopes he will join! Sorry for the neck cramp.

Mudder, long time no see!

When did you paint it white?

Exactly what I was thinking!

89AKurt · 02-20-2019, 09:01 PM

I'm going to try and get some of my truck in the pictures. Traffic was not cooperating (as in getting the heck out of my way). I've seen this one around Prescott.

Here's one I saw while out plowing snow this morning.

I spoke to the guy and he bought this '72 new! Sadly, he broke something ou n his axle, trying to rock himself out of being stuck in the snow.

yuccales · 02-23-2019, 11:21 PM

Saw this beauty today while getting a set of tires. Owner was real cool to talk to. V-6 replaced with a 292. Power steering, nicely done dual exhaust.

arcticman · 02-24-2019, 04:28 PM

I think Alaska would qualify as wild. There only original once and I've been struggling with restore or leave as is.

That almost hurts to see it.

**MDPotter** · 03-13-2019, 05:51 PM

Saw this K15 Sierra Grande in Hotchkiss, CO. $10K seems like a lot though. Couldn't get a good interior picture as the doors were locked and I don't know how to flip pictures after they're saved to my phone.

$2,000 of that asking price is wrapped up into that A/C block off plate/electrical engineering masterpiece going on there!

**Boog** · 03-16-2019, 12:31 AM

Yeah, what's that all about?

It looks to be abandoned - I don't see any large conductors running to it. Either way, it is a feat of engineering!

I found this truck on Facebook marketplace - it's going to auction and here are some details from the listing: 188k on original 307 engine, runs off propane or gas, and has all options available in 1972.

Madkidd007 · 03-18-2019, 01:31 PM

I got one. At a buddy’s shop and he said he’s seen it before loader with lumber to the rails. Two tone green GMC

**landarts** · 03-20-2019, 09:49 AM

Went out to look at a truck I saw posted on Craigslist yesterday. This truck was in the middle of a residential neighborhood and I noticed a few more cars and trucks through a opening in the high wood fence. I asked if any of the vehicles over there were for sale and this is what was behind the fence. For the rest of the story head over to this thread if interested http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=783579

So here is the legend for the map provided below:
