First post. New-ish to me 72.

The wait is over.
I've been wanting to share my 1972 Highlander pickup.
I'm sure some of you have seen this truck before.
I purchased it from Hooverfish back in
June, and really enjoying my role as it's new caretaker.I have replaced a few items under the hood for a more original look.
I'll post those pics below.
I had a few members come up to me last month in Lebanon Tenn, and talked about the truck.
I'm bad with names, but it was nice chatting with each of you.

I see no pictures.

After you post, Are you going down the page and and clicking the "Manage Attachments" block?

BTW I have seen that truck in person, and love it.

The post did have pictures, but for some reason, they've dissapeared.

Re: First post. New-ish to me 72.

Man that is a clean looking rig!!! It’s in one of my favorite colors the other I have only seen once and that is the coral pink and white truck. Something about how different these color combos on the trucks are just make them look sooo much better
