Talking The story of my first Classic Chevy!

The proud owner of this 72 C20 is ME!

Its not a Show truck, but its My favorite truck.

In 1972, my wifes grandfather bought this truck for $3945 Canadian Dollars. He promptly drove it to a RV store and put an 8' Alaskan camper in the box. He then used the truck and camper for roughly 2 months per year to catch a few trout. in 1997 he passed away and willed us the unit.
For about a year my new wife and I used it as a camping unit, but turned out to be too small when we had children. We sold the camper, WOW, a wooden box, I hadn't taken the time to notice. This is when I fell on love with these trucks. I have many plans for this truck. Unfortunatly the body has cancer, and bad. nothing $5000 shouldn't fix. It has to be done, I have been sweeping this truck off the driveway for about a year.


Lets hear your stories about your favorite truck.
