#2- a new take-off tailgate-destined for my cheyenne 4x4
#3- a full set of seatbelts including shoulder belts-traded for a 3 spoke vette steering wheel.
#4-NOS 4wd shift knob-same as number 2
#5 pair of near NOS 3/4 4x4 front stainless hubcaps-same as number 2

I gave away a 1970 short/fleet C10 that I bought for the trans, a friend helped me pull the trans and put it in my 69 so I gave him the truck. I kinda wish I would have just bought him a 12 pack instead.

i've been dealing in 67-72s since the early 80s and made lots of friends over the years through these trucks. us 67-72 owners are a great bunch and always help each other out.

VA72c10 sent me a panhard bar when I needed one after I got T boned this past spring. Thanks again

USMCCHEVY sent me his old speeo cable he wasnt going to use about 2 weeks ago. He went LS, very nice move.

Was told I could get whatever I needed from 2 bare bones trucks, and only got a few misc things, I wish I got more

One of my grandson's gave me a front clip for a GMC, at least he thought it was. After I took it apart I found out I had one '69-72 fender, one GMC fender, a GMC radiator support and a Chevy hood. I never told him, I figured it was the thought that counted.

A guy I know gave me a '68 Chevy hood.

But the best thing I have been given for these old trucks is a bunch of useful information from this forum. I spend a lot of time on here, it is more fun than watching TV, lol.
