I got my first one...a 1970 GMC Sierra Grande from a co-worker who after a drunken discussion about our dream vehicles informed me he had mine sitting in a field behind his house. $1500 later and I had my factory 402BB Sierra Grande. Unfortunately due to a move halfway across the country and the cost of such a move the truck was sold.

My second one I found through my stepdad, once again I was babbling about missing my truck while driving through farm country where I had spotted a truck. After listening to me whine for a while he got on his cell phone and called a buddy of his who just happened to have a '72 lwb custom deluxe sitting in his garage, 1/2 hour and $700 later and I had my second truck.
