Still looking for the '71 Gmc
2 Attachment(s)
To many of those who have seen the old thread, I'm just throwing this back out there since there is a lot of new members since the last time I brought it up
I'm still looking for my Grandfathers '71 Gmc Sierra I have the VIN number memorized from typing it so many times VIN number:CE134B117643 Located in North Carolina Possibly in Denton NC |
Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
Good luck on your search, I myself am looking for my dads '71 ss nova. I was brought from the hospital in that car when I was born.

Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
schrum what was wrong with the one you had?
it looked like the same truck? |
Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
It wasn't my pawpaws. I sold that one to get my pawpaws '59
|
Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
How do you know it is still in North Carolina?
|
Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
Because the guy he sold it to lives in NC
|
Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
Did you get the 59 running, and not to be an ass but are you going to be able to afford to maintain both of them let alone afford to buy this truck back?
|
Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
Sorta yes, working on putting the transmission cover on it
You're not being an ass. I'd buy it back if its still around which it should be because nothing was wrong with it |
Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
good luck on the search keep shaking the bushes you never know
|
Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
What blows my mind is the guy we sold it to, sold it to someone for $1800.. For that price I wouldn't think someone would part it out or so. .It was in nice condition inside and out

Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
For some reason I cannot find the thread on the board, but it looks like it originated from this board. Do you recognize this post? Or was it made by you?

Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
I assume this isn't it,
http://www.americandreamcars.com/197...stpkup0709.htm ...but its in NC, same color, different mirrors and some kind of rally wheel. White bumper might have been cheaper than replating the old one. |

Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
Schrum, Denton is a town of 1600 people give or take. Looking at this logically the odds are NOT in your favor that it's a technology savvy town with people searching the internet and especially not specialist websites. Your best bet is to visit the town, pass out some flyers and maybe hit a lead that way. I don't know the local population but from a Sociologists perspective find out what the major job market is pertaining to trucks, ie: logging or construction, and frequent the supply stores for that market.

Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
It has to be out there somewhere
|
Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
Whoever owns it must be sitting on the title
|
Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
I harte to rain on your parade but it probably got parted out and stripped by now.
|
Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
...or restored with an LS conversion and asking price of $35k, or frame hacked up, body dropped, firewall smoothed to the point of no return. I would never discourage anyone from such a noble quest. Just sayin'...
|
Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
Well I doubt it ..sure hope not.. if they were smart they wouldn't
It was sold for 1,800 so it wasn't parted out I offered $200 to the guy that had it if he found out information on it |
Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
If they were "smart" they would be doing whatever it takes to get the truck back on the road. Whether it's stock, dropped, chopped, parted out or any other kind of modifications that the current owner decides to do to it. Anything is better than sitting in a field rotting away.
For the record I think it would be cool if you managed to get it back. |
Re: Still looking for the '71 Gmc
Me too
I just hope its what I think it is |
