FOUND: Two low-mileage rare classic TRUCKS you have to see
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Man, is it nice to get out while we've been quarantined for what seems like FOR-E-VER (name that movie). I've had this lead on my desk for months now and I took the opportunity to fly to Billings, Montana and drive 3 hours into the middle of nowhere, with zero cell service and two incredible classic trucks.

Finding one truck like that with low miles and in that condition is amazing. Finding two like that in the same place is absolutely incredible.
I'm drooling over that dually. That is setup perfectly. What a beautiful truck.
Makes me want to be born in 1970 so i can live in the 80’s- i am absolutely obsessed with that time. these made me tear up because I’m so used to seeing them broken down and in terrible condition, these have literally everything original in them. What a find- wow
I'm so happy I clicked on this. Amazing, beautiful trucks. That dually just screams American west to me. Please don't modify the looks of them. They are perfect and clean just the way they are.

Cranking them with old fuel like that could have stuck the valves and bent the pushrods. Also he said the GMC is the heavy duty version of the Chevy, which is a myth.
I am so freaking jealous what a great find. Practically in mint condition.
So upbeat, great to see someone who loves what they do. Thank you.
Really enjoyed the experience just like we were there. Incredible find Dennis. Glad theses two trucks are in great hands . Btw Billing’s Montana is beautiful
Great adventure, thanks for taking me along
That blazer is awesome!
Amazing condition, rare options and the racing history, great find.

The Crew Cab would make a great hauling ass truck Great for Barn Hunting with 454 4 speed, it would pull some good old cars back home. We had a 427 stock engine pushing 375hp go out of the factory with headers, a high rise intake with duel, Carter competion carbs in a 72 Chevy Vega. We had to go to a Full Frame and tube out. For the 12 bolt possy. It would have pulled a large trailer and 4 cars.
Exotics,1 off's,Muscle cars, etc etc..THIS is now my favorite! Just crazy cool !!!
My grandfather had that exact K5, color and all. Bought new in Santa Barbara, CA in 1974. This brought back some great memories for me, man. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome finds Dennis 👍. Thanks for taking us along.
These are my two favorite finds. Ever! That big block 4 speed is amazing!
Amazing Dennis. The K5 looks straight out of Jaws!
You need a nice picture of the 2 trucks loaded up ready to go.. What a WOW moment 👏
OMG Dennis, I’d love to have that dually buddy!! That one brings back some really good memories from the mid 70’s when I was younger before I went into the military. If your going to sell the dually, I need to pull out all stops to try and buy that one buddy, omg I need that truck!!!! I used to have a farm in Iowa and the address was 3304 Collins Ave and my lucky number is 13 also Dennis. Most folks are scared to death of it but 13 has always been good to me throughout my lifetime. Great video Brother and beautiful trucks!!!!! Stay safe in your travels, the world can not afford to lose your knowledge base!
Luv the show. Watching from Australia . Stay safe in the U.S.
Absolutely beautiful trucks right there! My all time favorite body style of GM trucks, the ol square body. You hit pay dirt right there, bud. Great find!!!
What a great video, Dennis's enthusiasm is incredible!
I really enjoyed this episode! The dually a definite keeper, the Blazer a real money maker and the middle of nowhere, priceless! 👍👍
I said it before and I’ll say it again discovery needs to give you your own show ! !
still think those k5's are some of the best looking rides out there. The crew cab is great looking ride also.
Love that generation. My Dad had a 1975 Suburban with barn doors; we used it as a support vehicle for the race team.

Two beautiful trucks with all the documentation you need with very low mileage on both !!! Major find !!! 👍👍👍
I'm glad to see that they opened up the airport for ya!
Great find! You seem to be a genuine guy!
Wow...im just in Awe over how perfect both those trucks were 👏
finds like these mean so much more than a new 2020 exotic car.. just to find something this old and this well taken care off. god bless Dennis for having the knowledge and money to be able to find these cars. i would love to have a job like this.
Billings is so beautiful I can’t wait to go back
They're both like new. I can't believe they just sat in a garage. Cool video, thanks
That dually is gorgeous! The wheels, the paint, everything
Dennis, great video. Great finds. Very respectful. I graduated from high school in '79 Cape Cod , MA. Been working with cars and trucks at some level ever since. Here in New England we started fighting rust on mid 70's trucks by mid 80's. It's almost inconceivable that there are still original vehicles in that condition anywhere. Again, thoroughly enjoyed your video. Keep up the great work. Stay healthy Bud
Damn. I love these videos! Great find and a great video like always Dennis!!!
Great episode Dennis. I look forward to every single one [beerclink]
Great video and find! I enjoy the older trucks myself. Good to see they still exist like that.
I’d love to see Dennis road test the 2 trucks and how they are with the great engines & manual gears 👍🏼

worked at socal GM dealer as a parts man in college....75 was the last year if the full removable top in the blazer/jimmy line..78 on was a half top similar to the full size ford broncos of the era ....also GMC was a separate GM product line not heavier duty than a Chevy .....grilles and styling cues were different than a Chevy built on the same line..GVW,engine and drive-line options were the same ..the old joke was GMCs were built with lock washers where the Chevys were not

I enjoyed watching this video. It brought back memories when I was growing up in the 70's when my Dad bought a brand new 1978 Chevy K-10 Blazer. It was factory lifted with white rims and off-road tires. It had a light emerald green paint with a white paint in the middle. It was so nice but later traded it in for a new 1979 Chevy truck. I still wish he had kept the Blazer but he needed a work truck. He let me have his 1971 Chevy short bed pick up. Good memories of when life was more simple and cool 👌 trucks.
I have never been more jealous of anyone. I will not sleep tonight knowing I missed that deal on my dream trucks.
