Re: Where/How did you find your Truck ?

I had recently been divorced and was sitting on the couch trying to figure out what to do with myself. I decided it was time to get a new set of wheels. First thing that popped into my head was a 67-72 C10. I jumped on CL and sure enough found a 67 SWB "running and driving" for $700. I called the guy and he still had it. I had to drive out to Cumberland Co. to a Saw Mill and there it was on the edge of the woods out on the back 40. I look over it, heard it chug, saw it move about two feet so I told the guy I'd take it. You should have seen the look on his face when he asked me what I was going to do with it and I responded "Drive it". Priceless. Several months later he delivered a 68 SWB to me and couldn't believe it when he saw it out on the street with tags on it. I managed to get one of the photos from the CL ad.
