1993 Ford F150 – Richard D.
This was my grandpa’s truck, and I’ve used LMC to fix it and give it some upgrades. I got it when he died when I was 12, and I’m 16 now. This truck is my life.
1965 Chevrolet C10 – Mark G.
I traded a 2009 Polaris 500 for a 1965 Chevy C10 project! It sits on a 1991 1500 suburban frame with a Rancho two inch lift! We have totally restored the cab replacing the passenger side rocker panel and the panel above the windshield! We also repaired the floor! We have completed stripping the entire…
1992 Chevrolet S10 – Jensen L.
Ever since I was little, every time I went to visit my grandparents’ house, I couldn’t help but look at the S10 sitting in their driveway collecting dust and would always ask my nana about it. Later on, when I was about 9 years old, I asked my papa for the S10 so my dad…
1976 Ford F250 – Dale S.
Hello LMC, I bought my red Ford Ranger XLT Camper Special from a couple named Emil and Viola in North Idaho in 1987. They had used it to haul an 11 ft. camper down to Palm Springs, California every year since they had bought it new in 1976. Along the way, it had suffered the…
2001 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 – Michael S.
I purchased my Silverado new in 2001. Only had 6 miles and it’s still holding on. I have replaced the transmission but other than that the truck has over 400,000 miles on it and I would not give it up for anything. It’s a work horse. And in my case is cheaper to keep her…
1960 Chevy Apache – David W.
Abandoned at Aamco because it needed a clutch so my son-in-law got a salvage title for it and brought to me for a birthday present. Turned into the most expensive present I’ll ever have. I wasn’t ready to start on it and it sat out in a pasture for several years. Packrats had made a…
1998 Ram 3500 – PJ N.
This truck previously belonged to my wife’s grandfather, Tom. He daily drove this truck, used it for work and to make repairs around his Arizona property. Over the years he drove it less and less until he parked it for good. The truck sat in his side yard for the better part of 15 years.…
1974 Chevrolet C20 Cheyenne – Nolan G.
I bought my truck in January of 2025 right before I turned 19 years old, it was primer gray and sported all original interior. It’s originally a big block truck but it currently has a 350 small block with a TH-400 transmission. I daily drove it everyday until April 2026 and I bought new bed…
1966 Chevrolet C20 – Lloyd H.
Don’s Truck Lives On My dad, Don Hering, was a trucker in the Far North. He bought this C20 new in the spring of 1966 in Fairbanks, Alaska. It came as a Camper Special with extra heavy suspension, a 292 straight six, a four speed transmission and a low ratio rear differential. It was like…
2006 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 – Gilbert C.
My family and I had went to dinner on a Saturday night after a long hard work week. Afterwards we were on our way home and being car/truck enthusiasts, we decided to drive through the local Chevrolet dealer to see what they had on display, we looked at several nice rides. Then we turned the…
1998 Chevrolet S10 – Guy T.
My first S10 I bought brand new off the lot in 1985. Was a 4cyl 4 speed 2nd white long bed, I ran that for 8 years, put 100k on it then sold to an in-law who trashed it… I just bought a 1998 extended cab 4.3 V6 4wd black short bed. This one is…
1980 GMC K1500 – Thomas T.
This is my 1980 GMC K1500. It was originally my dad’s high school truck. I rebuilt it from the ground up with a new bed and cab. All new brakes, brake line, fuel lines and painted the frame. I also rebuilt the engine. The engine is now a 355 with flat top pistons. I have…
