This was posted in my local classifieds, sold for $6600 a few hours after listed. 400 SBC all original besides two inch lift. Almost jumped on this one...

How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part I

Tomahawk30 · 09-05-2016, 02:46 PM

Picked up my first square body in quite a while to celebrate the holiday weekend! Wanted something clean and reliable with good highway gearing for some longer cruises. (Disregard the puddle under the front... I'd been washing the Longhorn while waiting for this one to get delivered.)

Great looking truck!

Sharp looking truck - what's the backstory on it?

Don't know a ton about it. Guy I bought it from found it and had it stripped and repainted. He said it was extremely straight and had very little rust, and it certainly shows. It's pretty much all original except the newer stereo and seat out of an 89 or so C/K truck. The interior needs redone, and it'll probably need the engine rebuilt sooner than later as its still the original drivetrain. Previous owner's daughter drove it in high school then he parked it in his muffler shop for the past several years. Appears to be really well maintained.

That was when I brought it home a few months ago. This is how it looks now.

Thanks for sharing.

Well I guess I'm in the square body club now. Here is my 1980 c10

The day I got it.

Documents

Took these today all cleaned up

mud.man.rj · 09-24-2016, 06:02 PM

The 80 C10 really cleaned up nice, nice job, any other plans for it.
Like the lifted truck in the background too.

Going to change the motor to this

I will probably lower it a bit and swap the rally's in the back to 15x10 and get the AC back in working order.

And thank you!

X2 - cleaned up very nice and that lifted HD looks great too!

What's the backstory on the C-10 when you found it?

Appears that it had been sitting for a while.

I've known about the truck for 5 years. My father inlaw had it in his barn. It's been sitting there for 15 years. The truck belonged to his wife's late husband. It's been named by the previous owner "ole blue". It's got a hole in the floorboard from a 243. I bought the truck about two weeks ago.

Oh and it's got the 8track player and it still works!

mud.man.rj · 09-25-2016, 08:24 PM

Did you take the now super cleaned up truck back to the father inlaw, bet it would be an eye opener.
