A friend of mine that I sold another California K5 to last year (1984 2 owner-but ratty. ran great, I drove it back from California with many stops along the way) just texted me, and said I should list it for over $20,000.

I have over 40 cars and trucks in my collection. Half collectible-half daily drivers and work teeruks.

Some of my recently acquired toys, almost always from out west. I bot and drove the F700 from Tuscon last August, 1997 6.5 diesel dually 4x4 on back, '62 409 4 speed BelAir (clone) on the trailer.

1966 Toronado survivor on the ramp truck at the moment, just out of 37 years storage in LA. It was a Hemmings "Find Of The Day" two years ago

And I have my eye on a '59 Rambler...

Oh I forgot about the '63 Biscayne. I honestly have so many vehicles, that sometimes I just totally forget about certain cars.

The Biscayne is also a clone car, it was a 6 cylinder 3 on the tree. Now it's a 409 425 Muncie M20 4-speed. It's in storage in my mother's underground condo garage, I drove it a little bit last summer just after I bought it, actually bought 3 409 Chevys within

Thinking same thing. I think the younger crowd calls those squares now too?
Well, I guess it's up to us to educate them that a GMT400 is NOT a square. I like the platform but they are not the same :) It's actually a pet peeve for me when I see people refer to their gmt400 as a squarebody especially when they sit there and argue with you at great length that it is and why they think that. LOL

There's some super nice original trucks here. It's really making me wish I kept my old '86 Suburban. No rust, 90% original paint and a clean interior.

I ordered this truck when I worked at the GM Proving Grounds Lab , back in 1978 . It's a '79 , with 3.73 gears , specifically to turbocharge the 454 . We have put 497,000 + miles on it , and it's getting up grades as we speak . Just sold my (original owner) 1972 Corvette , back in September 2019 , it had 232,000 miles .

I have an absolutely stock numbers matching 74 C10. I’ve replaced the radiator and she got new paint at the end of the summer. It was a desert truck so rust was minimal. The 454 4 barrel was rebuilt and shows 37000 miles. My conundrum is do I leave it stock or customize it to improve comfort?
