Had a best friend that took the long road trip one way. He was into the 68-72 C-10s. I have a collection of parts from fenders to radois. And some ol school cast iron heads with the larger oval ports for big blocks. Really nice looking ol iron

Jeesh. Had a 76 I met my wife in. Still have the back half of the frame for a trailer. The chrome piece in the middle of the tailgate on for the garage wall. Yeah lots of memories there.
Tried a diesel but didn't take long to change my mind.
I now drive a 1979 El Camino and a 76 F-250 with a hot 390. And my swamp buggy is a later 50s gmc.View attachment 271270

That's just wrong. mtmuley

Yeah the wheels match color. Is that uncommon ?

GM color matched some wheels from the 60s to some time in the 80s or so. It's cool to me how much time and effort they used to put into little details like that back in the day

I thought square body pickups were 73-87 Chevy/GMC. Am I wrong?

You are not wrong. They went through 1990 on 3500 crew cabs though.

Sharp looking rig!

Had my '73 K5 several years ago. Long since sold it. Had a mildly built 350 with about 5k miles on it, 2 stage flowmaster, 6" lift on 35's with old school polished aluminum 15's. Even had a train horn.

 

[kevine001]

Just for the record...my K5 was NOT a hunting rig. It's the rig I wished I had when I was in high school. I probably would have been a very bad boy if I had that thing in high school.

Tell me about it. I had a 1967 Camaro 327 4 speed car. Probably 400 plus hp. I was a bad boy. mtmuley
