Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks

It's been a long time since I've been here. I bought a '72 back in 2002 and the short story is that just didn't work out. But this past weekend I got a '69 and I couldn't be much happier.

As you can see it's got a 71-72 grille. I'll change that when I have a little extra money.




A previous owner put a Sony radio in but did not cut the dash. It also has Cheyenne Super emblem on the glove box and I'll need to swap that.


My first priority is to put a new speedo cable on it so I don't get a ticket. I ordered a few odds and ends and after I install those I'll start looking for a grille and think about putting the right emblem on the glove box. Seems like someone wanted to make this look like a 71. My dad had a 71 and the idea is mildly appealing to me, but the idea of it looking "correct" is even more appealing. Glad to be back!

They say there's a sucker born every minute. They go to Ebay to be baptized.
