Its a 1971 Chevy Custom Deluxe C10, Needs some body work not bad at all though very little rust for the age of it. its runs very good nice strong motor and tranny. picked her up for 2300.00. Its gonna be a project cant wait to get started. Oh excuse the pics they aren't very good from my phone.

Cool! Wind wings. Did the latches fall apart? GM was famous for that in the early 70's

Only suggestion, lose the mirrors.

Great looking truck!!! I'm sure you're going to customize it aren't you? Oh well... I guess it is your truck. Just don't drive it in the winter!

Oh yes, and welcome to the club! I think we need to start our own group soon for these trucks!

Congrats. Looks like a cool ride Chad, and a nice project. Post pics of the C10 as you modify it.
