New to the forum and New Truck
Hello all I just purchased my second c10 and joined the forum I figured I would introduce myself and show off the new find! It is a 72 c10 Highlander the truck is in amazing shape. It has everything still in tack un altered. The body is very straight with just some minor surface rust. The interior is excellent and everything except the radio is in working order. I plan to drive it around for a few months and enjoy it then dig into doing a frame up resto. It runs great fires up instantly. Here are some pictures of the truck!
This is as i found it in the lot    And after removing the camper and a nice bath/scrub

Re: New to the forum and New Truck
There was a thread we had on that truck not too long ago.
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=572214 Being a Highlander package and trim researcher I'd be really interested in seeing more and higher resoultion pictures of your seat cover as it looks very original. highdesertdog1969-longhorn@yahoo.com

Re: New to the forum and New Truck
Yeah thats the truck and 2800 was what i paid. I felt it was a fair deal. Most of the rust is surface nothing deep except the rear cab corners probally both could be changed out. But for my first frame up resto its perfect!
Yeah i can get you some more shots of the seat. It is in killer condition the green fabric looks brand new. Its the white trim thats a bit dirty. There are no tears or rips at all tho. |

Re: New to the forum and New Truck
ha yeah i had a good feeling about the place i bought it from. i was happy with the price. I figure when i do the resto ill just replace both cab corners and be pretty good. And since so much of the original equipment is on it and working im going to try and keep it all original.
