From Alan :

           Here is my 1972 Chevy C10, Bronze and White, 350 engine 4 BBL, 3 on the tree that I just bought November 2006. This was a rare find – all most a Ghost!

           In 1975 (to 1978) I had almost the same truck , a 1972 Chevy C10 – 350 2bbl auto, same colour (bronze and white), here in Nova Scotia. I was just starting in Trade School and had to sell my old Chevy. Well, for the past 25 or more years, I always going to get an other 1972 Chevy. I watched the news papers, auto trader magazines. We even drove down to the U.S. a few times. I never could find just the right one (bronze and white C10 1972).

           I have been looking on the Internet (eBay) for years. Then one day in November 2006, one came up on eBay and our local internet auto sales. The Address said Nova Scotia, Canada. I could not believe it. I emailed the seller. Would you believe it was less than a mile from my house?! I have never, never seen another Chevy of this colour. Is it rare? And now to have owned two of them!

           He bought it in Georgia in the Spring of 2006 and drove it all the way up here. I would say its 85% restored. Just a small bit of TLC and we will be on the road this Summer.
