What would you trade it for? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**TBONE1964** · 03-09-2013, 08:05 PM

Don't throw stones yet!! I know some of you would not trade your old Chevy pick-up for anything.

As much as I love my 72 Cheyenne, I would trade it for one vehicle and one only. A 1956 Chevy Bel-Air sedan. It would have to be in equal or better shape than my 72. The problem with that is in the same condition, the 56 is worth a little more coin and they are very very hard to find with no rust or sheet metal repair.

I love the 56 Chevy's because they were my late fathers favorite car. When I was 6 yrs old he had a Bel-Air sedan that was black and charcoal two tone with a red interior. I loved that car.

Just wondering what you guys would trade for if temptation ever comes knocking.

'65 GTO, had one in High school and let it get away.

GASoline71 · 03-09-2013, 08:26 PM

I would trade mine for a decent 16' to 19' fishing boat. =)

**FL71C10** · 03-09-2013, 08:28 PM

a 69-72 blazer

**davischevy** · 03-09-2013, 08:28 PM

I always traded to get a nicer 67-72.

Square_78 · 03-09-2013, 08:31 PM

59 caddy
57 Belair 2 door hardtop or convert
Late 40's to 50's chevy truck
All would have to be in the same condition as mine or better.

Bloodyjaws88 · 03-09-2013, 08:39 PM

Ohhh that's an easy one. That ONLY car I'd trade my 69 for is a '50 Mercury coupe.

I have always wanted a 32 Ford Couple Roadster....and she would have to be cherry.

Tuff Gong · 03-09-2013, 09:01 PM

I would trade my 70 SWB cst for a same condition 69-72 blazer or a 65 442. Still kicking myself for selling my 65!

The only thing I would trade either of mine for is a pre 73 K5, well thats not entirely true, I would also consider trading them for a time machine.

big mike71 · 03-09-2013, 09:32 PM

I would trade mine for a 69 dodge charger.

67ChevyRedneck · 03-09-2013, 09:50 PM

67-68 Camaro or Firebird, prefer the Firebird. Motor/trans don't matter, I can swap those, as long as the body is perfect. However, if we were talking about an actual real world trade I'd have to kick in 10K+ with my truck to get a nice one.

ole dollor · 03-09-2013, 10:19 PM

if i could find my old 56 2 door i would trade for it. or maybe one like it.

c10srule · 03-10-2013, 12:25 AM

57 chevy 2 door or a t bucket but theyed definately have to be in really good shape

pritch · 03-10-2013, 01:02 AM

I have the only vehicle I've ever lusted over. I wanted a '68 Panel since I saw my first one in '68! And as soon as I was able, I got one. I wouldn't trade it for nuthin'!

My Pick-up, though, that's a different story. I'd trade it in a minute. For a '67 Panel!

dan42 · 03-10-2013, 01:23 AM

I wouldn't trade mine, but i would really love to have a '70 Chevelle big block. Maybe someday.

67ctener · 03-10-2013, 01:38 AM

66 ss chevelle

Let's see:

1987 Buick GNX
1957 Chevy 2-door
1970 Plymouth AAR Cuda
1969 Dodge Charger

Or.......a better condition 1969 or 1970 C-10 w/ big block.

Otherwise, this truck is staying with me.

BlackedOut67shorty · 03-10-2013, 01:40 AM

a 1967 c20 long bed 4x4 in similar condition

ItsRandy · 03-10-2013, 03:35 AM

My first thought was "what would I trade my child for"?...

A candy purple or maroon '39-'41 pro-gas Willis coupe, 500" 6-71 blown and injected hemi. They might need to sweeten it up a bit with some cash.

I love my truck, I have had it longer than either of my wives or my kid.

bigdog57 · 03-10-2013, 04:50 AM

i would trade it for one of the tri 5 chevy belaire or pick up.

aventur1 · 03-10-2013, 07:44 AM

After mine is painted I would trade for LocDoc 34 Ford.....

50bomb · 03-10-2013, 07:49 AM

I would trade my pickup to have my bestfriend missygirl back in my life. She is the one standing up. Miss you old girl.

Hawghauler · 03-10-2013, 10:17 AM

I bought my long bed for the obvious purpose of haulin harleys. But before I bought it I found a relatively rust free 1959 elcamino. It needed a complete restore, but had hardly any damage to body or glass. Rare! It also had a nice long bed and was low enough to load bikes easy. Unfortunately, the guy selling it knew what it was worth, and even though he was selling for a good price, 8k, I didn't have the $. When I was growing up, a friend of my dad's had a black one with a 327 4-speed, cragers, and a tonneau cover! It was jacked up in the back with some nice 50's mickey thompsons on it. It was very bad a$$! I would love to have one of them. For that I'd quickly trade my baby in.

**bowtie72** · 03-10-2013, 10:38 AM

Humm I think I am the other side of the fence from a couple of guys after Blazers. I am ready to trade my Blazer for a swb for my soon to be 15 yr old. All of my kids want to drive 67-72 trucks. My daughter wants a short step.
