Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
I'm a senior in high school and i got a 68 long box. As far as i know, there is only one other kid that has a 72. A few kids have 85's and 83's but I'm sure I have the oldest truck at my school.

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
I used to drive mine to school about 7 years ago and I also drove an all original 61 Cadillac. All the girls always wanted to get rides in the Cadillac, but this one day I was driving the truck and I offered to give this girl a ride home and she said "okay, what car are you driving?" I pointed to the truck and she said, "no thanks"

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
I got good and bad attention, depends on folks tastes. It's about 90% good attention. The truck sticks out. I was 20 miles from home, and then the next day two girls outside the taco bell near me recognized it as my friends and I were hanging out..
Funny stuff. |

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
I saw a pretty fine high school age girl today in katy. She drove a 71-72 4x4 long bed in flat black. Why can't girls like that go to my school?

Re: Calling all high school 67-72 owners!
crap today as im driving i started smelling gas, nothing unnormal, but then a burning smell came from under the hood, and my gas gauge is getting lower by the min. i pull over and see that the fuel line has burst a litle. crazy after all that work and money, the guy couldnt have put a new fuel line when they rebuilt the engine and put and new/different carb and manifold
