I have always wanted a 62 and finally got one. I started searching the various places to buy and a friend who is a member turned me on to this site. You guys have already saved me money and work, thanks for that. I read about known issues, this and that, etc. Anyway, I found this rig in Colorado and bought it. It was owned by an older enthusiast I presume. He passed and left it to his daughter, she didn't want it. So Now it has found it's way into my life. I guess I am the second owner. He took great care of it and I hope to make him proud. It may sound odd, but I think he and I would have gotten along well. I drove it home (4 hour drive) on stock sized tires then added 31.10.5's and that's about it. Full fluid change, and a good cleaning. After comparing to another rig in my area, I am confident it has had some sort of suspension help. This is based on shackle angle and the leaf springs are much beefier (with more) than the stock one with which it was compared. Without further ado, meet the last vehicle purchased before my first child will be born!

My wife and I love it for camping and wheeling around the rockies
Great looking trucks guys and welcome to the sickness!!
C7 - amazing shape on that truck and definitely looks like it probably has an add-a-leaf as the 31s should fill the wheel wells a little more than that.
