Bought a 1972 C10 last month from a friend. He bought the truck in 1994 from the original owner, installed new tires and had it painted. He started to install a new wood bed kit and lost interest so the truck sat idle with a partially dissembled bed for the last 30 years.
I am currently working on the bed. After some work the wood is fitting nicely and ready for disassembly and refinishing. When the bed is finished I will be working over the fuel system, cooling system, and brakes. The truck starts and runs. I drove it about 1/2 mile with the bed off. I have been lurking here for the last month and have gained some valuable insight into these trucks. I have owned a 1967 C20 Fleetside and a 1967 C30 flat bed in the past which I used as work trucks. https://www.567chevyclub.com/images/C10/Day-One-1.jpg https://www.567chevyclub.com/images/C10/Day-One-2.jpg https://www.567chevyclub.com/images/C10/Day-One-3.jpg https://www.567chevyclub.com/images/C10/Day-One-4.jpg https://www.567chevyclub.com/images/C10/Day-One-5.jpg https://www.567chevyclub.com/images/C10/Day-One-6.jpg https://www.567chevyclub.com/images/C10/Day-One-7.jpg https://www.567chevyclub.com/images/C10/Day-One-8.jpg https://www.567chevyclub.com/images/C10/Day-One-9.jpg |

Welcome to the forum. That is a Great looking truck. |
Re: First Post
Welcome and I agree, that is a very nice looking truck. Is that coincidence that your truck has the same color shade as your tri-five.

Re: First Post

Re: First Post
Welcome!

Re: First Post
Love your truck, especially with the factory air and buckets. The 56 is nice also, my favorite of the tri5's. Also the the garage with high ceilings and hoists, nice setup all around.

Re: First Post
Major congrats to you!!!
I laughed, rural California...I was thinking, is there such a place??? Being a 72, it has factory disc brakes. No converting needed. Just go to parts store if you need parts. Such a good thing!!! Man, I'd drive that ANYWHERE!!! |
Re: First Post
Actually… about 80% of the state by surface area is rural and not the type of politics you would expect. But about 60% of the population lives in a few big cities alone the coast.
