newbie from Denver - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Rondog · 01-16-2006, 03:09 AM

Howdy! I'm in Parker, CO, and just joined. I have a '72 C-10 LWB that my dad bought new. Been wanting to do a restoration/customization of it for years, but now I need to unload it. I wanted to list it for sale here but see I have to be a subscriber or something, so now I have to try something else.

Welcome to the board! I sent you a PM regarding the truck. Thanks!

I don't really WANT to sell it, but I need to. I got it from dad in '95 or so, with 45,000 miles on it. When he passed away in Dec. '04, I ended up with a paid for 2000 Silverado and a 1956 Willys CJ5 Jeep. So the Silverado fills my truck needs, and the Willys is the focus of my wrenching lust now. I need to sell the C10 to finance the Jeep restoration, plus I don't have a place to work on or store it.

Any other way to pay besides PayPal? I don't trust 'em.

Welcome!

Rondog · 01-20-2006, 03:18 AM

Thanks all! Here's a couple of shots of Ol' Blue, she's always been a good ol' truck, I wish I could fix 'er up the way she deserves.

krue · 01-20-2006, 04:08 AM

It's a shame you have to sell it. You should sell the jeep to finance restoring the truck.

Jason915 · 01-20-2006, 10:39 AM

Welcome to the board from Colorado Springs, too bad you have to sell it I would just keep it until you can start to restore it.

86swb · 01-20-2006, 01:11 PM

Welcome also. Your Dad's ol' truck would turn a lot more heads that a jeep will. I think you will regret it later. I know I have plenty of times. Restore the truck and let the jeep go. It was your Dad's and just know you will be making a mistake. MO

Rondog · 01-20-2006, 04:38 PM

Sorry guys, the Jeep ain't going nowhere!!! It's a 1956, same year I was born. It's original date of sale was 3 days after I was born. And, it was my dad's also! I used to drive it around when I was a teenager, so we've got a history. I would prefer to keep them both, and get rid of the wife. That would finance both projects right there. I also need to move to a place with a bigger garage or a shop.

So you think the wife is worth how much? You must think an alful lot to think you could finance both projects selling her.

Keep in mind the '56 Willys Jeep was my dad's too! I bet if I'd gotten a '56 Harley Panhead from him, you'd say to keep the truck and sell the Harley to fix up the truck too, huh? I live Colorado, and I can use the Willys in all kinds of places the C-10 couldn't dream of going.

I'm sending in my check for the subsrciption right now, so hopefully I'll be posting a for sale thread soon.

Well, I sent in my "subscription" check a week ago, and have yet to hear from anybody if I'm "approved" to post an ad yet.

How freakin' hard is it to reply to PM's?

Still waiting to hear from "Josh". Lost count of how many PM's I've sent him. Is he still alive?
