Re: Vintage picture thread
I bought that from the original owner.
When he retired in 72 he bought it new, put a fifth wheel hitch in it, and took off seeing the country.
When I bought it in the fall of 1980 it had around a 100,000 miles with a new engine, transmission and the rear end whining. It just wasn't enough truck for towing that camper.
I gave $1,200 for it, and he told me it had piston slap when the engine was cold and needed to be rebuilt. I put a rear end in it, and drove the blue blazes out of that thing for 4 years with not one problem.
My HVAC guy lusted after it so I traded it to him because I had bought another one owner 72 Cheyenne Super.
