Just picked up my 1970 K10 from fellow member - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**derotoreut** · 02-13-2013, 04:00 PM

I just brought home my newest edition, a 1970 SWB Fleet K10. I purchased it from member, and long time family friend, rsavage. Thanks Rick! I wasn't really planning on buying another truck right now, but I fell in love with it and couldn't refuse. Good thing I have an understanding wife. Another plus was that it was only 10-miles away and Rick graciously agreed to trailer it home for me. What a guy! Looking forward to spring here in Buffalo now. In the meantime, she'll sit along side her older sibling, my '69 C20 and dream about getting outdoors.

I don't blame you for falling in love with it.

sdailey · 02-13-2013, 04:18 PM

Very nice truck indeed.

What size are the wheels? They look deeper than an 8" wheel.

**leddzepp** · 02-13-2013, 04:18 PM

Very sharp truck

They are an 8" wheel. It's just that the backspacing is 3", which is pushing them out a bit.

That's a really nice looking truck, congratulations!

alsriv2 · 02-13-2013, 04:45 PM

Ok, that makes sense.
