Wyatt, although not an original paint truck - I'm inferring from the ad that the owner (of the past 44 years!) repainted the original colors - I've never seen a K in that color combo. Love it. Gotta post a pic from the ad in case it gets snatched up before someone here gets a chance to see it.

That is an awesome truck. ^

**1968C30** · 01-05-2016, 10:32 PM

47,000 miles with original paint.

68panelman · 01-05-2016, 10:36 PM

Thanks 68panelman. Notice the vin label on the steering column. This was a farm truck and it was never removed. I still have all the cattle racks for it also.

**Canuckvetter** · 01-06-2016, 01:02 AM

Bought new here in Edmonton. The granddaughter bought it for a dime. Excellent return on her investment. I'm glad to be the current caretaker.

Very nice! Actually quite similar to the one I posted on page one. The son I'm buying it from bought from his dad for a dollar, also an excellent return on his investment 😀👌

Oops my bad! Not sure how I missed that part on paint

**68bowtie** · 01-06-2016, 02:06 AM

can't get enough of this thread. these trucks are nice!

Ken B · 01-06-2016, 08:08 AM

Keep em coming guys, love this thread! The green C30 is a beauty!

Agree w/sawyer, yes, works of art. After getting one of mine all detailed out on a nice sunny Saturday, there is nothing more enjoyable to me than to sit there w/a good cigar and a cold beer and simply admire. I never get tired of looking at them. Who needs van Gogh, Picasso or Rembrandt when you have a nice truck to look at?

No worries at all -that's a very cool truck, glad you shared it.

cleanfreak · 01-06-2016, 11:13 AM

A different kind of time capsule. Story is that the barn burnt when it was 2 years old , then was re-built around the cars inside. Was for sale last fall ,I should have bought it , everything around here is rust , rust rust , the bottom of this thing was like new , would have made a great crew cab doner

tommys72 · 01-06-2016, 11:43 AM

Best thread on the board I believe . That c30 is awesome. The burb is neat in its own way, look at the melted taillights

**Cash3481** · 01-06-2016, 12:24 PM

Got this truck from Colorado with 27000 miles.
Now has 52000 and much cleaner than shown here.

I really like your truck and especially the Speed Warning Dash, does it still work?

C/10 King · 01-06-2016, 04:31 PM

A few 71-72 stockers I used to own.

73737373 · 01-06-2016, 05:23 PM

Shorties are not my cup of tea, but the 3 trucks above are outstanding as far as "time capsules". Did the 3 above have names, too? Wow.....more pics, please!!!

92GMCDriver · 01-06-2016, 11:48 PM

My 67 is a bit of a time capsule, it has 18,000 original miles but they were all on gravel roads and working on a farm, parked in a barn since 71 until i bought it early 2015

Yes works fine. Just annoying lol. I have a 67 3 gauge one as well to put in my other truck. Got one in my vette too. It's a sickness.

LOL Usually I name them, but those remained name less, the black one was a factory big block truck, the green was "special order" from a little Ca. mountain town's airport and the "baby sh#t yellow" one came from a retired dentist. I'll look thru my archives for more pic's....

73737373 · 01-07-2016, 02:29 PM

Ochre...not "baby poop yellow", although not the firts time I've heard anyone call it that. My personal favorite color on these trucks BTW (long or short). Ya better get on the stick and name 1966 Short Fleet pretty soon or she/he may wind up with an identity crisis which can manifest itself in any # of ways; mysterious electrical gremlins, leaks, refuse to start....on and on.
