Re: Mexican 72 in Canada

i think i lost count on how so many trucks have an LS engine, or a 67 front clip or a stepside bed. this one rare truck that iam saving the pics on my computer never know when i may see one again. your buddy should consider selling it to you and get him one thats more common if he wants a common truck.

My feelings exactly. I would love to see more trucks with a 72 clip or a GMC, and I hardly see anything anymore that has a good old Small Block, much less a Big Block. I am gonna keep trying, because I think he could sell this one, make some money, and buy a better start for a custom.

If it were mine, it would only get a big drop and a big inch SBC. Nothing that couldnt be returned to stock. Time will tell

If the box gets hit and is not repairable,THEN get a Stepside and put it n. Just look at how people are wanting the parts before they're even removed.
Agree

Re: Mexican 72 in Canada

Why buy an odd truck and change it to normal, just buy a normal one and leave the cool one that is odd for someone that appreciates it for what it is.
