Re: mexican 69
some of the Mexican built C10's had a bed that was unique only to the South of the Border rigs. Can you post a pick of the truck, pleeez? love to see it.

Re: mexican 69
If I ever own another 67-72 (if?) I'd love to have an instrument cluster like that in it. Can't wait to see pics of your rig.
