The 72 C10 was a good truck, just couldnt afford the gas. It had the original 396/402 in her. id be lucky if I got 8 miles to the gallon. Have gone through a number of beasts over the years. 68 firebird convert.(couldnt keep up with rust). 55 210 Chevy, motorcyles. Used to like a lot of speed but now it seems to be character and style. I also have a 64 c10 fleetside shortbox sitting in the field that someday may get to. Im pretty happy with the 53 as it all original. Might look at putting a 235 in it for a little better power. But only if one shows up at the right price. Had a look at your gallery, nice rides. Will try to post a few more pic later. Had my son help me this time. I had to right down line by line how he did it. I am slightly comp. eliterate. Cant spell worth a darn either.
