New 72 C10

[southplainsag02]

This is my first post but I have been lurking on here for a while. Last week I purchased a 1972 C10 lwb Stepside from my uncle. He purchased the truck from a friend of his with only 32,000 original miles. It had the original wheels and tires when he bought it. My cousins both drove it as their first car when they turned 16. When my youngest cousin graduated high school he purchased a new car and the truck has sat in the barn since 2003. I bought the truck last week. It is in very good condition. There is no rust except for very little surface rust and only 4 dents that I can see in the body. I put in a new battery and checked the fluids and started it right up. It runs like a top! The only problem that I can see under the hood is a cracked right hand exhaust manifold. I replaced the windshield wipers and got all of the lights working this weekend. Now I just have to get it registered and inspected and I will have a lot of fun with this little beauty. This picture is the day I bought it. It sat in the blue barn behind it. I am looking forward to learning new things from this board as I begin working on this truck!

God Bless!
