Man, did you hear that tough idle, she was ready to pull . This has always been my favorite body style, the days before we had these tarted up suv's with a short box!
mgtowfish73 my Dad had a wrecker The same year model. I loved riding in it and listen to the 383 stroker it had built and put back in it back in 1990 when I was in 5 grade. I love to have one more ride . I sure miss you Dad.
That 350 in these years was so insanely powerful. I don't care how much weight you load into them or tow behind them, they tow it like it's nothing. Hey chevy, please make real trucks again, not the disposable plastic trash youve shamelessly sold the last 30 years
I have a stock 1971 which has slightly more HP than 1972. They're less than 200HP. Trucks today have twice the HP, are much more fuel efficient, have better brakes, better suspension and twice the GVWR. I love my '71 Custom Deluxe but I'm not kidding myself.
@@rdabneyutube. My cousins 72’ Chevy went 423,758 kilometres before it had ANY problems… my 2014 chevy had a software problem,l and oil pump problem… at 110,000 kilometres. They aren’t anywhere near as reliable. We maintained the fuck out of that 2014 too. Ever since we fixed those problems it hasn’t had an issue other than saying “the oil is low” even though it’s completely full 💀. Sure it may be luck but man I tell ya. The classics were built with a much higher quality.
@Tywild327 my 17 dropped the transmission at 95k miles. My 84 has rolled the odometer over twice that I know of and that's accounting for 15 of its 40 years. It has worked from day one as a tow truck, a salt/sand truck, and off and on as a plow truck. Never has needed any major work that I know of, everything is still original.
@@dedreman2227 that was pretty good, too. The 67-68 had that more aggressive downward slanting. I'm partial to the early 70s ones with the clean grille and hood lines. Part of that could be the memories associated with that one truck I suppose.
Chevy commercials used to be fucking badass. So much better than "real people, not actors", or just dropping a ton of bricks into a $50,000+ truck without a goddamn bed liner.
Yeah, can't wait to see what happens to those ridiculous tailgates in the Northeast with the never ending salt they throw down by the ton every time we get 1 inch of snow !
What I would give to have a childhood in the 60’s-70’s hell even 50’s. I’m 17 right now. And I absolutely hate everything about this time now. Really wanted to buy an old Chevy Square-body but where I live they are just rotten old pieces of junk that are overpriced. But at least I have my 51’ Chevy Styleline that my grandpa let me buy off of him.
71 Plymouth. Thats funny. If there so bad then why are they the best selling truck in America? they must be doing something right. GM had to take money from the government to save there sorry asses.
Best year for body styling as I owned a 1971 C-10 hauled my Artic at 440 around every where. 350 , 3 on the tree. Rebuilt shift coloum linkage cause it was worn out.but a great truck for many years.
The physics of such of acts is not all that surprising. What you have broken the initial friction holding the wheels in place, the actual amount of power required to keep those wheels in motion is minimal.
:( i wish .. No standard trans option anymore either unless u buyva toyota.. Hell ... If i bought new the only option id want would be 4x4 and ac.... All the rest would be roll up windows, manual locks . and so on .
Hey! Look at that! A real truck!!! Doing manly truck type things! But, it probably doesn't have a built in wi-fi hotspot and the old 350 isn't much of a gas saver... I guess I'll go get a 2015 silverado
+John Cummings that's right. I was just going to say that. this new crap isn't worth a quarter. you can't beat this 72 model with that 2015 crap. some guys I guess you can't tell huh.

My late grandpa had Chevrolets and GMCs in the 60s til the 80s. He loved those trucks.
67-72 Chevrolet trucks are the best looking trucks ever made.
Dont forget bout thr square body era
@@Victoria3232-j7o looked like trash compared to this. The 88-98 were worse than squarebody tho

I think it was a 454 but yeah 350 before mid 70s had higher compression

You can if you wanna pay for it there are alot of restored ones out there and a whole lot cheaper than a new 3/4 ton 4x4
I bet they used the 4wd so they could put it in low range. Pretty cool that they did this so long ago.
nitrosport5 they would of had to use atleast 4 high to do it tgat is a lot of weight

It's only a truck right
460,000 lbs being pulled by a Chevy. It took Toyota until a year or two ago to be able to pull a 300,000 lbs shuttle
Chevy should have responded with their truck pulling three 747's, each with a shuttle on it's back.
