'72 C10 purchase by classic/forum newb

[OCNMNT]

Just bought a beauty '72 C10 custom deluxe. 350. Auto. Very good condition. No rust.

She's my first classic ride of any kind. And I'm not much of mechanic, yet. So, I wanted something that is super sound and simple mechanically. Also, I wasn't interested in anything showy or too flashy.

A few weeks ago I fell in love with a C20 online in Idaho. The same scheme as my C10 but a bit more rough and some underbody rust but still a cool rig. It was in the shop still so I didn't move on it. Meanwhile I started to get interested in the 65-66 C10s. God those are sweet! I prayed for a sign to ease my tension over making an educated decision. Then, yesterday I found this C10 one hour from my house. Same scheme as the original C20 I fell for. I went to check it out today and there was a small Boston Bruins sticker on it. I am a HUUUUGE Bruins fan. There's my sign.

Will be using her for daily driver in town and for short distance surf trips

Anyway check out the pics. I'm sure I will be on here for maintenance knowledge and the sort.

**hmm not sure all the pics posted.
