We used to refer to them as the "Modern Classic". So, a thought ran across my mind and I'm just wondering how many here have driven a mint loaded C/10 before? Either old enough to drive these when new, a cherry low-mile survivor, or a freshly restored one. I'm talking a CST or Cheyenne 10 with all the comfort and appearance options...and lets add in the big block, too. I'm curious how many here even know what that's like. If you ever have, or are fortunate enough to later, post up here what you thought. I know what I think and it's a mighty fine pleasure to say the least.

No such luck. I learned to drive on my cousin's farm in a beat up no-options '69 K-10 with a 4 speed. Loved these trucks ever since.
