Re: Most "Desirable" Year and Model Truck

My two favorites are the 72 Long fleetside with the two tone package like mine ( but not necessarily pink and white ) and if I had another it'd be a Black 72 Short Fleet big block with a 68 front clip.

Re: Most "Desirable" Year and Model Truck

Laying all jokes aside, (I know I started the up the Corvette thing back up) but if you could somehow find the original SS concept truck below, I think it would be the rarest and most disirable 67-72 out there. Too bad that it most likely was to sent to the crusher by GM!


Can you imagine the feeling of being out tooling around some old trucks somewhere and run up on it? I can dream can't I?

Re: Most "Desirable" Year and Model Truck

I agree partly with Longhorn, the 2wd blazers are my favorite of all time. 67 front end with the big window.....powertrain LT1 tuneports are great...you get the best of both worlds.......RestoRods are so cool...(however) this new theme of grundge trucks and Rat Rods I'm lovin very much too....

Re: Most "Desirable" Year and Model Truck

When I went looking it was for a 69 but any of the six years 67 - 72 are as good as a truck gets. No company has ever made a nicer looking truck. If GM wants to sell some trucks they should revive this body as Ford did with the Mustang.

Re: Most "Desirable" Year and Model Truck

haha, longhorn I was wondering the same thing... but I think a '68 short fleet black slammed to the ground would be sic. Or a '71 K10 SWB, that's my current project.

Re: Most "Desirable" Year and Model Truck

When I answered I took this to be asking what is the most desireable factory offering across the board,not what each of our favorite was.I always liked`67 small windows inspite of what my first answer was.But,if a guy wants a`67 upgraded with 71/72 features.it takes us back to my original answer.Theres alot of big block/disc brake`67s out there.
I like them all and could never narrow it down to just a favorite.How about a`69 CST/10 big block Panel w/air,posi,Hugger Orange w/Parchment interior?Slap on some TorqueThrusts...done.

Anybody around here an artist? I would love to see a modern take on our trucks -but please keep the 2 wheel drive lower -todays trucks all look like 4x4's Nothing against 4x4's but I just like a normal ride height like my 70 is.

Re: Most "Desirable" Year and Model Truck

That would be a 69 with a 67, 68, 69, 70, 71 or 72 front on it. Step or fleet.
