/\ Perfect truck to pick-up a girl in at her parent's house for your first date.

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

Kinda hard for me to agree with that(no offence), Would rather have my truck nicely restored before I even take my girl for a date in it.....And I don't even have a girl!:lol:

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

Were going to restore it but I think endlessearth was joking haha

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

I was. I think that truck is beyond awesome. I had a Chevy van I was 16 and that caused issues with my girlfriend's parents. I can only imagine what a whole rolling sex palace would have done for them. :ack:

On a somewhat more serious note, I was looking at pics and videos of the OK Farm Truck that runs 10 second quarters with a box on the back. That made me think that it would be (obviously ridiculous but still) awesome to see your camper built as a sleeper drag truck. "Only when the truck is dragging do I stop shagging."

new to forum just picked up this 1964 c20 got a real good deal.this is my second mid 60s truck had a 1966 c10 stepside as my first truck(father and son build).now its my turn with my son

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

a few pics from how it looked when i found it and when we got it home .plans are to lower it down and paint thinking flat orange with white top with steel wheels

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

Its great to see these old chevys come back to life from what could have been there final resting spot.

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

I'm a South Carolinian who has been stuck in MA for more years than I care to count.

Here are my twins.

First up is the '65 black and red stepside, 350/350 ps pb front disc, rear drum, locking Warn hubs and a sweet DeeZee truck box. A real heavy duty monster. It's mostly '72 K-series blazer for the 4X4 components underneath. Love this thing to death, but it may have to go soon. This truck has only ever let me down with the starter in the 5+ years I've had her. Done tons of maintenance, and she's as happy as I am about it.

The new gray and black '65 fleetside is a 350 with a TH400 trans, ps, pb, front disc, rear drum, but it's a little more polished (way more chrome), and geared more for the highway. This just got shipped in from Arakansas - supposedly a father son project that lost it's funding, so I picked it up, and am adding the necessary bits. A bit easier to get everyone in to go get ice cream with this one. Still chasing out a few bugs from the seemingly hasty assembly process. Looks to be a fun ride, though.

Cheers

Wow, that's a beauty! Well done sir!
Here's my 65 Fleetside, finished earlier this year after many years of work.

Replaced the chains on the tailgate with buttons to clean up the look.
Also removed all the badging and side view mirrors, also lowered the truck 6 inches for that sleeker stance.

Under the hood is a 283 V8, taken from a 65 Impala and modified a little.

Also moved the gas tank to the bed, these older Chevy trucks tend to smell of gas in the cab, if you don't move the tank.

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

Your truck is one of the nicest I've seen yet. :metal::metal::metal:
Did you make any Magazines?
BTW, Thanks, but not my truck.

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

No not yet. But thank you for the kind words.

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

Best pic in a long time. Don't you bet that conversation went somethn like this:

Man: Well, thars' no denyin it's a fine truck. No doubt about that.
Salesman: "Yessir! She's all new with a buncha new features!"
Man: Maybe so, son, but ya see, I wont be hornswaggled like last time.
Salesman: "Oh no sir! I'll give you a great deal. Let's go inside and do the paperwork"
Man, aghast and flailing his arms: You want WHAT for that? $2900! Holy cow, son! I can buy a house for that! I only paid $1500 for the last one!

:lol:

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

For that price you could almost buy a new 63 Vette. :uhmk::mm:

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

Thank you so much, these things are just too much fun to drive around.:chevy:

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

haha, could you get a split window Vette for that?;)

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

Once again nice to see someone lift another one of these trucks. Way to think outside the box. Beautiful truck:metal:

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

They were actually $4,037.00 for a new. I bought a used one a year old for $3,000.00 back in 1964. :metal:

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

Wow, goodbye to those prices forever.:chevy:

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

I've had 10 Corvettes since then. I wish I still had the 3 mid year StingRays. :uhmk:

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

Brand new to the board...lots of gorgeous trucks!

Had a 67 C10 as my first car, learned to drive with the "three on the tree". Been away from trucks for awhile, but now I have 4 teenage kids who are all going to be driving soon so it was time to get something to work on as a family!

So...here she is...new to us...my '63 C20...only had her a couple of weeks:

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

Welcome, looks like a great 67'. What all are you planning for it?

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

Welcome aboard! Looks like a good truck to start with, & cool that you're getting the family involved. What are the plans for it?

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

Sorry...my FIRST one was a 67...but my Dad sold her back in 1989...THIS one is my (new to me) '63 C20...

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

Ah, sorry.

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

Thanks...working on getting her more road worthy first...already replaced the tires, air filter, ignition switch, and headlights. I'm going to tune her up, she has a small block 350 now, and someone installed an automatic transmission (bummer!). Looks like one of the previous owners started a restoration and either got bored or ran out of money. Lots of the wiring has been torn up so I'm trying to decide if I want to troubleshoot what is there or just replace with a new harness. Needs some body work all the way around, but the frame is straight and it runs good! Initial plans are replace the steering wheel (with an original 63 one I found locally), parking brake handle, seat belts, get the headlights working, then try to sort out the gauges. I want her to be pretty enough to show off, but not so pretty I'm afraid to haul a load of dirt! We call her Orange Crush!

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

No worries...I wasn't clear. :(

She certainly gets the stares though! Funny thing is that my '67 was also orange... :D

Re: 60-66 pictures thread index
 

Yeah, I love the looks you get.
