Joe, that has to be one of the nicest original panels in the nation. That department must not have used it much, or whom ever did took exceptional care of it. That is an awesome rig. Did you want to relive old memories with those bias plies? They sure have a driving style of their own. :Lol:

These tires were a must for the look on this one. I think they are perfect on it. I drove it yesterday and those tires don't really drive too bad. And they don't make noise like I thought they would. Now I wouldn't want them for everyday driving though lol

Great job as always Joe!

Thanks, Well it's actually 514 Red 😉 But it does look a little orange. Next to my hugger orange truck it looks red

That would be awesome if someone on the board ends up with it.

Excellent job. A truck that straight and rare deserved to be kept original, which you've done well.

As much as I would like to have it I think I will hold out for a 72 Blazer I know of not far from me if I can ever catch up with the owner .

Getting flipped already?

The OP stated in another thread, more than a week ago, that he had sold it.

Re: I picked up a rare one, 68 K/20 panel
 
I sold it to a friend of mine that's a dealer. I got what I wanted for it, so now it's his turn to try

I see your friend has a 73 suburban listed also. I tried buying that for 16000 about 5 weeks ago in Kansas. Now asking 34000

I saw the suburban, but don't know the story behind it

That 73 looks to be pretty nice. I wish him luck on making the near $20k profit on it though.
