Here are some pictures of my 69 C-10 ... has a 327 and Saginaw 3-speed on the floor. Have had this truck for 12 years since I was in high school. Thinking of taking it back to the original green with white top.

straitnate14 · 07-28-2008, 08:40 PM

any lowering in the future? like mabey 3 in the back 2.5 in the front?

69C-10SWB · 07-28-2008, 08:49 PM

No plans for lowering. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

ChevLoRay · 07-28-2008, 08:53 PM

First off, Welcome! from the heart of Arkansas....sister state to Michigan. Glad to have you on the board.

I wish I had my high school ride, but I don't. You do, so good for you. Whatever you want to do to it is ultimately up to you, so do what you like....and like what you do to it. If green/white makes you happy, I'm sure we will, too. The costs will be the same, regardless of what color you decide to use. I just think that it is nice that you still have it.

No regrets....nice.

Black 95 TSI · 07-28-2008, 09:15 PM

Welcome!! Nice looking truck. Makes me want to go work on mine now. Only thing I see it needs is to be lowered abit, but thats just me, then again I am scared of hights. lol

69C-10SWB · 07-29-2008, 10:34 AM

Thank you, I appreciate all your comments.

MickMc · 07-29-2008, 10:56 AM

Nice truck parked in front of a field of waving hundred dollar bills, that is a corn field right.

Welcome from Southeast Missouri.

That is a mighty fine looking truck you have there. The corn fields look about the same here now.

My high school pickup was a 1956 F*ord 3/4 ton stepper, that was a very, very long time ago.

Keep it and enjoy it.

I would agree that taking it back to the original green would look really good. Good looking truck - nice touch with the Georgia Bulldogs plate in Michigan!

68GMC454 · 07-29-2008, 12:36 PM

good looking truck... cool that youve had it so long...

**Yukon Jack** · 07-29-2008, 02:31 PM

Welcome to the board - the body looks to be in great shape - can't beat that. I think green with the white roof would look great.

OrangeCrush1970 · 07-29-2008, 04:01 PM

GO DAWGS!!! The truck is reeeal nice. I second the green w/ white roof....or red n' black?

67_C-30 · 07-29-2008, 05:31 PM

Nice truck! Welcome to the board!

**Palf70Step** · 07-29-2008, 05:31 PM

Truck looks real nice. I like the high /stock stance. Color is different but not gawdy. I think it would look good as the original green/white combo though. Drive it whatever you do, enjoy it. I wish I held off tearing mine down liek I did. I sure miss driving it.

kcjones · 07-29-2008, 07:30 PM

The real question here is, did the chicks dig it in pink when you were in high school?

69C-10SWB · 07-30-2008, 01:55 PM

yep, that's a corn field

69C-10SWB · 07-30-2008, 01:59 PM

paint is gulf crescent purple (ppg I think) yes chicks dig it, my wife most importantly.

kcjones · 08-01-2008, 04:21 PM

Here's a question, 69c10swb: A lot of 69-70 guys do that headlight thing...what is it? I only see it on the 69/70's, though...
