Re: How did your love of the Square Body start

Father bought a '76 C20 Camper special brand new. That truck he traded in on a '78 C30 utility. My First Company truck was a '78 Big 10, 350 auto with NO air, drove half way around the country with it in 80 and 81. Next company trucks were an 84 C30 and then an 87 R30 Stick 350. Drove that for 8 years. Also borrowed occasionally an '88 R30 with a 6.2L and the thing got great fuel economy. Fast forward to the 90s and dabbled in 69-72s and restored a 72 K10 that I kept for 12 years and a 72 K2500 GMC. Rust is an issue here in the Northeast, (really lol) and finally ran out of 69-72s to play with and started over with square bodies with an 85 K20 plow truck and an 88 R30 dump. Bled over to CUCVs and have had about 60 of them since 2005. The m1028a1 I have was my first of many many CUCVs and like that one the most. It was even to Kuwait and back before I got it. Also love the dually CUCV I have which is pretty rare and in great shape. K30 dump is the most useful of them all.
