are our trucks really collectible classics?
do you believe our trucks will ever be a mainstream collectible? all restored and going across the auction block bringing in those big numbers like the muscle cars of the 60's and 70's, or will they always be more of collectible truck for a limited part of the population? i see the posts of, dont cut the radio hole larger, dont cut the doors for speakers, like you are cutting up a rare classic. are there any old trucks of any make that really bring the big bucks all restored to perfection?
i have a 72 cheyenne super c20 long box. big block. air. tool box. tilt. tach dash. dual gm spots. dual batt...etc etc etc. im torn on building it custom, not radical, but you wouldnt be able to tell it was ever a cheyenne super. or keep it stock, but lowered a little with aftermarket wheels. i like either way alot. non stock would be cheaper to build...but if i keep it stock will i be able to retire by selling it someday? yes, i realize the short fleet half ton version would be worth more...but but...what to do, what to do.
