  • I did it again....

    I've missed owning a C10 for a while now, but honestly been wanting a LWB next time around and a 71-72....always really liked the Cheyenne trucks with the factory 2-tone and belt mouldings. (sorry phone pic)



    Anyone that knows me at all also knows that I friggin hate yellow...it's like my cryptonite, but this is one of the ones that I can stand...the old Butterscotch and White. This thing is amazingly original and straight and about 95% rust free....cab corners, floor, and bed are solid...as-is the passenger rocker. Just a couple spots about the size of a dime on the drivers rocker and a small spot on the bottom of the drivers door skin...both are very patchable. Has been a Texas truck it's whole life....numbers matching 350/th350, runs and drives really good. It even has complete AC on it that I'm certain I can get working fairly easy. I almost feel bad for how little I paid for it....almost!

      I dig it. I love the old ______ & white 2 tones. There's a clean blue/white one a few blocks from my house. There are actually THREE of them on that same road within 4 blocks of eachother

        I drove almost the exact same truck in HS. Same body, color, motor, rear suspension, but mine was a three on the tree. Smooth riding truck with the rear coils. I would love to get another one some day and put a late model drivetrain and A/C in it and just use it to haul crap around....

          I wish I had your problem of only not being a fan of the color. I couldn't get me toy like that if I wanted to. Being broke sucks.

                I despise yellow, but butterscotch/white is actually a decent combo, only similar yellow shade that gets a pass


                Whats the plan for it? 12 valve swap? or......

                  You should sell me your mustang only so you can have room for the truck.

                      I think long beds are more expensive.

                        Nice looking truck.

                        I just picked up a 72 Suburban. Got my eye on a 69 shortbed stepside to swap front clips on.

                          Typically the short wheelbase trucks are more desirable.

                            I guess I was misinformed
