new stablemate for olbuck

[tbruz]

So about 5 years ago I decided to get a stablemate for my 76 Bronco.
I picked up a 1972 Blazer and took some crap from the site for it.
Recently sold the Blazer and replaced it with this new stablemate:

its a 1975 F250 Highboy, one owner, 60K original miles and unmolested, 360 and a C6.
Will post side by side pics so you can appreciate the size difference.http://classicbroncos.com/forums/imagesCB/smilies/smile.gif

Bringing it back to bone stock just like its little brother.
Thanks

Sweet truck! They don't get any tougher than those old Highboys!
Congrats on the new ride!

I would love to have a '72 blazer

Very good score with that Highboy! I've been looking for just that example for a long time

Yes, getting harder to find in original no rust/no rot condition for any amount of $$.
These were WORK trucks back in the day and not many survived that coupled with rust/rot
They are also getting pricier than 1 year ago(used to be around $6K to $9K here in the Northeast) close to double that now but still no where near where the Broncos have gone.
Could these be the next high rising value collectible?
Who knows, but it sure looks/feels cool coming up to a light next to a current vintage HD Pickup and looking down into their rides from my stock highboy perch .
Thanks

Very nice! I had a 68 high boy and it was bad ass. Some day I may owner another! Looks like a great truck!

Nice score on the new truck, but the 72 Blazer would be cool I'd love to have one of those... All 3 are sweet rides
