1972 Suburban C10 with Gear Drive - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Bought this for $1900 in 2007. Just happened to be driving around and came across it parked on the street with a for sale sign in the window, and it became ours. It was originally blue and white. Original 350 truck that now has a big cam, headers, and timing gears. Not sure how much power it makes. We haven't done much of anything to it since purchase other than cover it in primer:

2nd gen Camaro steering wheel and Sun Super Tach II that isn't hooked up:

It also has cruise control (old unit), and a badly installed external cooler which will be removed. The plans are to fix this (that's not even the whole mess) and maybe see what it does on the strip.

One video, though I have a couple more:

Thanks for looking!

I'm not up on my early cruise setups but if that is original it may be worth a few bucks.

It was working not too long ago. Didn't know they were worth anything, and I'm probably not keeping it because these old ones are so inaccurate.

Pre drivetrain removal.
