Rate my truck, add five pics of your truck.

Add five pics of your truck, and then anyone rate on a scale of 1-10 and tag that member. You can also add what you like and what you might do different if it was your truck, all in good fun so don't be mean just honest.
We all love our trucks and work hard to keep them going, time to show off your hard work no matter is its a rust bucket or all stock to full custom.

I'll go first, 72 with 70 front clip.

8 For sure. Dig the stance, wheels and the bed wood really pops. Can never go wrong with houndstooth interior. Just a sweet little step side. Only thing I would personally change if it was mine is putting a little more bright work on the outside.

Re: Rate my truck, add five pics of your truck.

My 68, fully built at home. Just swapped in a 327 sbc and a TKX this winter. Did the sport buckets and console last year. Only real thing I wish I had done while redoing it was move the motor to the V8 location on the frame instead of leaving it in the I6 location, would have game the option to do a big block later one with a little less work.

Wow, looks like it just drove off the assemble line. Easy 9, the red wall tires are not for me but do pop. Great truck!

Bridge of the gods. I like to stay at the inn and watch river and rail trafic from the balcony.

Truck looks good as well.

it's kind of an awful game, but I'll play That 68 is a 10 man.

Here's my 71 Deluxe, 402, A/C. I still have to slap on the front bumper. Pretty much all original parts, even most of the bolts restored. Dropped it though, 4/2.5". Levels the truck FWW.

Another pristine truck, very nice. I'll give it another 9 just because its unfinished. My 72 emergency brake lines don't route like yours, surprised one year difference they changed it to the side of the frame instead of under.

Re: Rate my truck, add five pics of your truck.

Very nice, I rate them all a 10.

Here is my 72 Cheynne Super C20, 511 big block, automatic w/ gear vendors, Dana 60 4.10 w/ locker, 30-gal fuel tank, AC. It's so much fun to drive. I have owned it since 94.

Whew, I'd give all trucks thus far a 10 and leave my ugly duckling out of this competition!

I agree with the above. I would not want to park next to any of them.

Might be because my SWB has leaf springs. The original owner ordered a on a chassis. Inline Tube had never seen the original rear PB cables. But if I remember right, the confusion was at the brake plate. They built new ones for me, however; nice work.

Love this truck, activates memories of the 72 my grandpa had. It was a C10, but same otherwise. Factory big block cheyenne super with the blue houdstooth. Its why I started looking for a 71/72 at first until my 68 popped up for sale.

Wow that is a pure beast, so nice. I was expecting more of the average fixer uppers but you guys have been keeping these trucks in the original plastic packaging.

I'm going with a 9, I would do something different with the underside of your hood. Really having to search to find anything I would change since its so clean.

Thanks, and I actually did clean up the underside of the hood. It looked really bad after I first tried to clean it. A forum member posted what he did to his, and he told me all about it. It looks great now.

Man that looks great, I only mentioned it because mine looks worse. I plan to get a cowl hood this fall after AC/heat so I haven't been worried about it, for the mean time I do need to find something to adhere my supports to the bottom off the hood. The hood just vibrates in the wind now and looks like its about to blow open any time.

Pretty sure there is suppose to be some type of gasket or caulking between the hood and support but there is nothing.

Yeah I don't see anything I would change, that's a 10 in my books for sure.
Maybe a 9.5 since I have two sons and need a bench so those seats would have to go.
A Snowden is on my list for the future mods.

Looks like a nice little runner, I'm in the no AC club for now as well. Hope to get out this Fall.
