Buckets look right at home in there Rene! Nice score. This truck just keeps getting nicer.

It looks like the shipper only used newspaper for padding? Ouch. Glass kinda takes real special attention to get delivered safely. It can be done but you have to plan for the couriers dropping,throwing and stacking your boxes.
Sorry for your loss.

Well then, we will see what will happen then.

Looking good, did you get lucky with finding some green buckets or are you just good??

Rudy67chevy · 01-15-2012, 12:51 AM

Yeah I called but the guy was like "you said you'll give me how much?" and the next thing I heard was "click". Just kidding Rene. I wish we could work out a deal for a trade but I think yours may be ahead of mine.

I love the gmc buddies but for color combo those green buckets are a perfect match IMO.

Try them both and see witch one has the best comfort and let us know.

**lolife99** · 02-05-2012, 11:46 AM

Keep the green seats.
I'm pretty sure the GMC buddy buckets will find a home in a future purchase,...

67-72trucks · 02-05-2012, 01:04 PM

Very nice truck..Perfect patina! Looking for a solid swb 4x4 project.

**jocko** · 02-05-2012, 01:09 PM

i agree, save the buddies for another - they make a good excuse to buy another truck to fit them...

Man thats a beautiful truck, i have the same one but long bed. Same patina and all, looking good.

Tomahawk30 · 02-25-2012, 01:43 AM

What years of trucks had that style of mirror? The 70 C10 I just bought has the screws and brackets for that style, but I want to make sure to buy the right ones. I need to get rid of the big black tripod mirrors ASAP!

BTW, I'm watching your progress on this one as it is one of the few medium olive swb c10's that I've found. Pretty much the same setup that I just bought, with a lot of the same needs!

Newtz67 · 02-25-2012, 02:26 AM

Well, it sold or not?
