Impressive line up.
At one point, I had my '68 C/10 Stepside, '67 K/10 Suburban, and '71 GMC K/1500 Jimmy all running at the same time. Around 1995 -98. Gas and insurance were killing me. Had to remember to run each one a couple of times a week, to keep the circulation going. Then the Jimmy blew the PO's engine. The Sub had an engine fire in '98 and I parked it. We re-engined the Jimmy in '99. The Stepside needed an engine change in 2002. It was back on the road in 2005. I've since found collector car insurance is a lot cheaper than the regular policy. Also with vintage plates, the trucks can skip the annual Emissions testing.
