Picture time, look in at the collection - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Figured I may as well post some pics since I was out playing with the camera the other day.
First is my Grandpa's 1968 C20 50th Anniversary as proved in this thread: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=385565

Next is a mid '60's C10 pickup bed trailer, an '80 C20 we got for the drivetrain, my grandpa's wrecked '78 Dodge van, '71 GMC C20 which has donated parts, my '78 F150 and my 1973 Triumph Spitfire that's pretty much junk.

My dad's '72 C10 he has had since highschool, it originally started as a C10 and he swapped it to a 396 powered GMC K10 frame (K10's black body in the background setting on C10 frame) in 1991 and then it blew the trans (I think?) and here it sits.

Just in the corner of that pic you can see my dad's 1970 Chevelle he picked up many years ago.

This 1966 Caprice is pretty special, it was my dad's Grandma's car who then passed it to my Grandpa, he passed it to my dad, someday it'll be mine. It's a factory 396 car.

And of course I gotta put up a pic of my '69 C10

Plus lots of other various junk and daily drivers sitting around, but this is the old cooler stuff.

Nice collection! That chevelle would be sweet to ride around in. Get a motor/tranny in it, put a windshield in, fix the brakes, and bam, instent hot rod! I love these older cars much more than the new ones. They have that 'cool' factor to them. Liking the caprice too!

Looks like a nice stash, cover up the windshield on that Chevelle before it rots away!

Jacfourteen · 02-28-2010, 08:14 PM

man you got some cool projects you gotta start workin on!

07SSSC · 02-28-2010, 09:20 PM

Thanks guys, the Chevelle has been sitting like that since he bought it from a couple who had had a fight and her revenge was to tear up the car, back window is missing too. That car has been here just like that for as long as I remember and I'm 25. It still has it's 2 barrel sbc and auto trans intact though. The Caprice has water leaks around the windows so the entire white interior is moldy, of all our fixer-uppers it's in the best shape though. We cover it every summer and the lovely Idaho wind rips it off. Wish funds provided to get it back on the road. Someday.
