Re: Vintage picture thread
Here are a few of my truck in it's earlier days. I'd like to take it back to more of that original condition
   This is a '67 we had for a little while. Sold her to a guy from Northern MI. He road a bus down and took a cab to our house and drove it home.    This '62 is what my Dad traded + $2000 for my '71.

Re: Vintage picture thread
I love these pictures as it reminds me of how keeping things simple was better than all the new(supposed to be better) things we have today. Everything now is built with a service life mentality instead of back then being built to be repaired and last forever.

Re: Vintage picture thread
  Things today are engineered to withstand a specified numbers of years before wearing/breaking down. We are that advanced. I'll keep my truck thanks.Quote:

My dad bought a 72 custom deluxe 10 lwb fleet new that was also dark green with a white top, 307 auto, ps pb coil rear no Ac. It was his daily driver but also pulled our bass boat on weekends. In 77 or so one of my older brothers talked him into trading it on a 73 or 74 black with red interior Cheyenne super 10 with a 454 auto loaded, leaf rear. It ran like he'll but obviously drank gas and was not as good of a truck overall as the 72 and didn't ride as well. I will see if I can find photos next time I go back home.
