Got a new 71

[wesmigletz]

Hi, new to the board. We currently have a 72 C10 LWB, purchased from the original owner. Before that I had a 69 Blazer and a 72 C20. I had been wanting a short bed fleetside for quite a while. Most of what I looked at were beat to hell, and had rust issues.

I found this 71 last week. The frame, body, and under carriage are rust free. The previous owner spent a fair amount of money on the paint and new parts for the truck, but had to sell before he could finish. There is some "trailer" damage to the pass side rear and tail gate, from when the previous owner was bringing it home from the paint shop. There are a few other paint blems from the truck being used as a shelf.

I'm not sure about the color, I'm tempted to respray it before putting it back together. Hopefully, I can start on it next month.
