Re: Just Picked Up my First 67-72 C10 - LOTS of Pics!

It's perfect...right down to the Invader 350 valve covers. Dont change a thing!

Drop looks like a 2/4 w/ 255's on 10" ralley. I really like the setup

Thanks again for the kind words guys. I will have the truck at a show in King, NC this weekend if anybody wants to check it out in person.

Was the Invader 350 what they called the small blocks back then? I've been trying to find out more info on that engine without much luck.

Re: Just Picked Up my First 67-72 C10 - LOTS of Pics!

You have a very nice truck..... Definitely a keeper.

I thought that the "Invader" sticker on the valve cover was a GMC thing? Anyone know for sure?

Man if you were lucky enough to buy such a good example of a 67/72 truck, what on earth makes you decide to get rid a few weeks later?

Well in his first post of this thread he states
[I buy/sell/trade cars often, but I think I might keep this one for a while:]
So he's seen how well this truck is going over and decided to sell it instead. No big deal, it's what he does.

Check it out in the pics below, I'd love to hear you guys comments/opinions. I'm a total newcomer to these things, but I'll be brushing up over the winter. I buy/sell/trade cars often, but I think I might keep this one for a while:

Re: Just Picked Up my First 67-72 C10 - LOTS of Pics!

Thanks for all the compliments folks - I drove the truck ~100 miles to a car show last weekend in Concord, NC. It was an absolute pleasure and didn't give a bit of trouble. Lots of folks loved it - the attention to detail is what gets the big grins.

70cst - before I put the truck up officially for sale, I will certainly dress in blue and be a proud site supporter.

Bingo. I buy/sell/trade a lot and I'll miss the dickens out of this one, I'm sure.

It's got power disc brakes up front. I'll wait to post a price until I become a site supporter as per forum rules.

Dave, I haven't been able to find anything out on it yet. I think it may be custom, although I'll investigate further and get back with you.

Thanks again guys!

Very good it may very well be custom. I like how it fits low and sleek. Even if there is no info on a brand name maybe you could get us some more info like what it is made from (aluminum) and some underside photos.
Good luck with your decisions as they will be tough.
Thanks again
Dave

Just wanted to let everybody know that I'm now formally "dressed in blue" here on this site, and I'll be putting the truck up for sale officially on New Years Day.

Thanks again for all your compliments guys!
