That's an amazing find... love it!

C10_ustacould · 03-19-2012, 07:43 PM

Thanks guys, I am really diggin' it! The old bench seat is hammered so the first order of business is to get the buddy bucket foams and covers. Thinking of going black on the covers and later I'll swap some other interior pieces to black to mix it up.

I know where you can get a set of buddy seat covers

seeing the younger kids playing in these trucks.I just hope there are enough of them saved.For them when they want to find a old truck.When i was growing up it was pretty tough trying to find parts for the old Studebaker 1951 trucks and old trucks in the 40's.The repop parts now days are junk.

I bet in about 10 more years a old Beat up tail gate is going to be worth plenty of money cus of the better metal it was created by

1972RedNeck · 03-19-2012, 08:12 PM

I normally don't like 2wd short boxes but that is one sweet truck.

ol'blu72 · 03-20-2012, 06:54 PM

Awesome truck!! Love the color and patina!! I love your plan (I would go bigger on the engine tho).
@jablck I was at Eglin 09-04 maybe I've seen you around

C10_ustacould · 03-21-2012, 05:43 PM

First custom touch... peep mirror.

jablack · 03-21-2012, 05:53 PM

I'm in Birmingham Alabama and I never saw that truck.

C10_ustacould · 03-21-2012, 06:52 PM

I bought it from a guy named Jeff Rodda who lives in Chealsea, AL. He bought it from a family in Tennessee. I'm not sure he drove it much...

jablack · 03-21-2012, 06:56 PM

Lucky score man. I thought I did good on the 68 I got a few weeks ago but your truck looks great. I can't believe I missed that one.

Hey Michael, are these the caps you're needing?

C10_ustacould · 03-21-2012, 06:56 PM

Ol'Blue and jablack - I did 18 of my 20 yr AF career right here. I was at Hurlburt for a total of 6, Eglin for 7, and Duke Field for 5. I love this place, needs more C10s though.

jablack · 03-21-2012, 06:59 PM

You have all the luck. I tried to stay there at Eglin but I went to Korea, got a divorce like so many others over there, and got out. I still have alot of friends down there. I had a blue 83 Chevy C10 Silverado as my daily when I was there.

C10_ustacould · 03-21-2012, 07:19 PM

There is a nice blue 80s c10 over on HFLD now

jablack · 03-21-2012, 07:24 PM

I took mine home with me. I had it in a car show up in Crestview once. I went with the guys from Magic Muffler. This was back in 02 I think.

C10_ustacould · 03-21-2012, 07:25 PM

That was Rich right?
