Re: The One You Wish You Had Back
[quote=special-K;8849129]Both got my attention. It was a nice display piece for the cars and a stand out custom purpose-built on it's own. The one you I wish never got away from me was that gold utility body truck
I hope you get it back Quote:

Re: The One You Wish You Had Back
Since I didn't start this crazy obsession until late in the game...my first was a new 1978 GMC K15 short box step side. Black with red interior, 400 engine. Raised it two inches with a size larger tire keeping the original rally style wheels. Have to look for a pic but was sharp looking. Sold it to a friend and never saw either of them again. My back up was a '68 Pontiac Grand Prix...428ci 390hp. Dark green, black interior, buckets..really kicking myself for not keeping that one!!!

Re: The One You Wish You Had Back
Regret selling it. I actually regretted it the day I did it I could have backed out as no money or papers signed but I made a deal

Re: The One You Wish You Had Back
I only owned the RX2 three months before we did a 180. My first vehicle. So fun to drive, except when we've done a 180

Re: The One You Wish You Had Back
This is the one car I should have kept. Did a hundred hours of yard work for it in high school. 1956 Super power brakes steering and windows. Had tuck and roll done in the 60’s and had been sitting since the late 70’s when I got it in 97.

Re: The One You Wish You Had Back
Irony is I used the money from the Studebaker to buy my house and I gave the money from the Suburban to my son to buy his . Didnt sell it for that purpose but it made it easier than taking money out of my investments

Silly me. It had a dent on the bed and a bad spot of paint on the hood that bothered me. I decided I wanted a more radical 67/68 and a classy factory look on a 71/72, so I sold it Quote:
I love the old customized/hot rod cars that sat for decades with the vintage treatments left in tact all those years. Great find!

Re: The One You Wish You Had Back
1972 K/5 Blazer and my Dad (gone too young).
My first vehicle, bought it from my Dad when I was 15. Drove it for 5 years and then sold it, we lost track of it after that. I have had many other Chevy trucks since then but that's the one I miss the most. First pic is my Dad. Second pic is me with hair 37 years ago.
