Re: Rarest truck

My first truck was a Triple Black 1971 Custom Deluxe with factory buckets. It had a 427 Tri-Power & 3 on the tree. I bought it in 1978 from a guy that had a 1968 427 Tri-Power Vette. His wife did not like the power in the Vette so he switched motors ! I remember him telling me that "nobody beats him off the line at stoplights" ! Truck had 14,000 miles on it. I sold the tri-Power and bought a friends Grampa's totaled 1972 6cyl with 42,000 miles put that in the truck. A few years later sold the 6cyl to a friend. Then, sold that truck with 17,000 miles for $800. It was pretty rare with the Tri-Power but not original. All those preceding trucks in this thread are awesome !
