Re: what was your first truck everyone?
1980 El Camino that I bought in 1986 with 130k on the poor old 267 V8. Lasted about 6 months under my lead foot, swapped out a used 301 in its place. First "real" truck was about 2 years later when I bought a 1986 GMC C15 LWB with a worn out 305. Will have to scan photos tonight, the black/white scanner here at work just doesn't cut it.

Re: what was your first truck everyone?
No pics here at work, but it was an '86 S-10 Tahoe. Nice two tone blue. I had it a year before I sold it and bought an '83 stepside.

Re: what was your first truck everyone?
I had a 68 half truck, then a 72 that ran but had no rear and was made of cancer. Then I bought an 84 K10 SWB Diesel in January of 09'. I sold it in may of 10'.

Re: what was your first truck everyone?
77 Chevy sport. 350/350, krylon paintjob, bondo everywhere, 2 tons of fun! Got it when I was 16 and had it for around 6 years. It was my first vehicle. My dad bought it new.

Re: what was your first truck everyone?
80 SWB stepside.
Ordered it myself and followed it down the assembly line. Straight 6, 3 speed Saginaw on the tree converted to a 4 speed Saginaw on the floor. 3.42 posi axle. Added dual exhaust by hanging the '79 exhaust system on the rh side (the 80 exhaust went down the LH side). Hidden hitch behind the license plate. Not sure on the drop; probably 4/6 back then.... K

Re: what was your first truck everyone?
76 c10
    It was a straight 6 3 on the tree, and all multicolored, was repainted white twice by my dad, converted to floor shift and we built a 350 for it. It was pretty nasty with the 3 speed stick and the posi out back which was probably 3.73 or 4.10. It was rotted away everywhere though, firewall, floors, rockers, bed, fenders.

Re: what was your first truck everyone?
My first was a 86 2WD suburban. Here's a crappy pic but it's all I got left.
 Sadly I rolled it into a small creek, blew out all the driver side windows, bent the frame, and caved the roof in at the back side window. But at least I took out a telephone pole with me lol.

Re: what was your first truck everyone?
  78 F150 with a built 351m and 4speed. I loved that truck but it was getting a bit impractical since I did lots of highway driving. Which brought me to my current 87' with all the cool options, overdrive, and much better mileage. I'd like to get another 4x4 soon, may buy my buddies 79 k20.... would be nice to add another square body to the driveway! The pic of the two trucks together is funny, my chevy looked like a darn 4x4 when I first got it. How things have changed..... and for the better!
