We hope you take care of her like the PO but with you still being wide awake right now looks like you will

So what drew you to her? What are you going to do with her?
and NO PA. Winters please Rust

I was cleaning out the garage for 2 days, I really had a feeling this was going to be mine. Don't worry about the snow, she'll never see it except for looking out the window.

stllookn · 06-17-2009, 01:47 AM

SWEEEEET! Another 50th member on the board...welcome to the club! I can't wait to see all the pics!

**70cst** · 06-17-2009, 07:49 AM

I can say that I actually ...bid on a very rare 50th Anniversary Stepside truck on ebay.

71HUGGER396 · 06-17-2009, 09:06 AM

I'm going to clean it up when it gets home, I'm not sure what my plans will be, but I do know that the first thing that I'm ordering while be one of those buddy seat covers from Rick's. Thanks stllookn, since you posted your pics of your buddy buckets, I knew that I would have to have a my old torn set covered like that. They are SWEET!!!

Stoney · 06-18-2009, 12:23 PM

Nice Score.......

*c10_1971* · 06-20-2009, 11:35 PM

Has the truck made it to its new home yet?

Longhorn Man · 06-20-2009, 11:59 PM

how upset is the wife?
If she's gonna make you sell it.... let me know.

71HUGGER396 · 06-21-2009, 08:51 AM

No It's not here yet. Goldenboy will be here tomorrow, that's what me and the kids are calling it. When my boy looks at the pictures, he keeps saying, "dad, you have to take off that extra tire". The wife has been a complete surprise, all she said was "Good, now a don't have to get you a father's day gift." If there is a chance that I don't like it, I will let you know Longhorn Man.

Can't wait to see more of this truck!!! Congrats on a great buy, glad it was another board member...

71HUGGER396 · 06-21-2009, 09:06 AM

I will be posting pics when I get it, but it might take a few days. I have to go out 11-7 tonight. And since I haven't really been able to sleep since I bought it, I think that it is going to be a long week of midnights.

factorystock · 06-21-2009, 12:04 PM

Nice truck, very well perserved original. I thought all 50th anniv. equipped pickups had the "CST" option. This truck appears to be a "Custom". Note white front bumper and door emblems. In other words, can you get the 50th anniv. package on all trim levels?

Longhorn Man · 06-21-2009, 02:39 PM

I saw a local 50th C/10 LWB fleetside that had NO option package. They didn't need custom nor CST.

JohnC · 06-21-2009, 04:24 PM

I'm not over here on the 67-72 area much, but I'm glad I popped in. That is one heck of a score, and the rarity? Wow! Like everyone else I can't wait to see more pics of it. Congratulations!

71HUGGER396 · 06-21-2009, 07:15 PM

Only 16 more hours until it's home.

**72 Super** · 06-21-2009, 07:46 PM

It looks like a great buy,congratulations

JohnC · 06-22-2009, 03:09 PM

ok man it's been longer than 16hrs, and still no pics!!!!!

combustion · 06-22-2009, 09:41 PM

*waiting impatiently*

JohnC · 06-23-2009, 08:00 AM

Time must move slower in the Eastern part of the country!

Just kiddin!

71HUGGER396 · 06-23-2009, 05:52 PM

It's home and it's everything I was hoping it was. To get pa title and plates, I had to drive to a certified scaleto get it weighed for on the new title. On the way back it started to spit and sputter, dirty gas. It's been sitting for the last few years. Like I said, I'm working midshift and not able to work on it much. I sure I'm not the only guy on here with a wife and 2 kids. There are other things that do need done OTHER then these trucks, at least that is what my wife told me. I will post pics in a few days. I really want to get the gas tank to clean it.

**fine69** · 06-23-2009, 05:58 PM

You drove it? Thought you were using a tow dolly?

What does she know?

I say from many many miles away!

Just glad to hear you got it home safe and sound man! Congrats!!

71HUGGER396 · 06-23-2009, 06:19 PM

We ended up using a trailer. But when I went to get the new title and plates, The Maryland title did not have the actaul weight of the empty truck, So then I had to drive it to get a certified scale weight, 3740lbs. Remember, I live in Pa, we have to jump through fire to get things titled and new plates. It does drive down the road nice and straight. It has 68800 actaul miles on it. The guy foung a log book that his father in law had. Get wait to get the gas tank clean and drive it again. My other shortbed truck has leafs springs, this one has the coils and the ride is much smother.

JohnC · 06-23-2009, 07:04 PM

I bet you had a smile from ear to ear while driving it too.

Longhorn Man · 06-23-2009, 11:40 PM

is it OK for us to hate you?
I hope so.... I'm feeling it already.
Yeah.... I don't even know you and I hate your guts. I need to talk to your wife, tell her how you don't need another old ugly death trap truck.
