Welcome to the board from the southern end of Mississippi. Very nice Longhorn you have there.

Wow... good lookin truck, looks like my first Longhorn.

RIP

Hope you have better luck with yours, and DON'T let a Mada slam into you.

Andy you should fix your GMC up like your old Longhorn. All purty and shiny.

Longhorn Man · 04-24-2006, 09:01 PM

(my GMC is a chevy)
That blue one wasn't as pretty as my photo angles made it look... but trust me, it'll have paint on it here fairly soon.

Thanks guy's for all the nice comments!
I have been looking for a 67-72 for a couple years and finally found this Longhorn about 5 minute from my house....

Canadian694x4 - I live in Wallaceburg about 4 hours south of you. I have been to Wiarton though...snowmobiling!

Special-K - The pic posted is one that I took when I went to look at the truck before I bought it. That longstep was also the previous owners.
He had only owned my Longhorn for a few months, The original owner (also local) has had the truck since '71
