Got my dream truck!
Hello everyone,
I've been searching for a decent C/K10 for years and I finally found my dream truck! It's great to finally be apart of such a huge community, the amount of knowledge on this website is amazing. It's 1972 K10, 350 with the SM465, pretty much all stock. I got my favorite year, favorite color/accent and definitely favorite truck of all time! It was originally from Montana, apparently it was used as a farm truck for most of its life. The older owner passed away and it somehow found its way down to Northern California. It isn't perfect but I always wanted an original paint, no worries drive around truck. I'll attach the pictures below. I'm happy to join the community! Nice to meet you all. Got the cab lights and all! So sweet. Chris |

Re: Got my dream truck!
Thanks everyone! Yes, it has two huge tow hooks in the front. I’m sure they were used all the time on the farm!

Re: Got my dream truck!
Great looking truck. Love the cab lights, stance and tires. Just so you know the tow hooks are worth around $1,000 or more.

Re: Got my dream truck!
Thanks everyone! Wow I had no idea they were worth that much! That’s a lot! Hopefully no one steals them, that’d be a bummer.
