Very neat option and details - thanks for sharing!

The owner is above. Latest photo does not show this item. Wonder if he still has it?

Cool thread. Thought I would post some of my little brown truck back when the original owner had it.

Re: Vintage picture thread

And here is a pic from 1998. My very first truck! 1973 C/20 Custom. Bare bones and UGLY! Haha. You know what's weird? I still remember the VIN: CCY243Z136724. For some reason, I have never forgotten it! If this truck is still alive and someone has it, let me know!

Thanks! A few years ago I took a look through some of our old photo albums hoping to find some more pics from back when Grandpa used to own it (he bought it new). Unfortunately, it didn't end up in any of our old pics from back then.

Yes, Dad still has that plow mate push bar but hasn't used it for the past 15 or so years. We gave the '77 a complete restoration around that time and transferred all of the snow plow equipment over to a rusty beat up yard truck. The plow stays on that truck year round so the push bar has just been sitting in the storage shed.

Good luck finding the truck! Perhaps someone w/ proper access to a database could run the VIN and help you out. I’ve seen it done before for people tracking down a previously owned vehicle. Some w/ success and others not happy w/ the condition of the vehicle once located.
