I saw this truck at a car show at the Cullman, AL airport a few years ago. It is spectacular, for sure. I heard that it has since changed hands.

Not for mine, but here is a pic from 6066gmcguy.org. This is what mine originally looked liked, Just imagine the light green on the wheels for the upper body..

I would call our panel truck.. completely unrestored stock:

Was originally white.. then painted green with astroturf 'hair' sometime in the 70s and then with its last owner can-o-flaged by he and his sons.. they are Mopar fans.. so they didn't care if he was ugly. However, they were impressed that they couldn't kill it.

I was thinking when I saw your picture that if you and Mr.Tony would get together you guys would have one heck of a used truck lot. :lol:

And I agree with you 100% about Tony on this forum,

Re: Where are the stockers?
 
Heres my bucket of bolts. Not pretty, but I do plan on going back to stock with the original hub caps and paint color. However there will be some suspension/tire size and possibly engine modifcations. ;)

That was mine. I sold it back in '05 when we built our new house. I hated to see it go, but I have another one in the oven (66 short, fleet - loaded!). I even pulled the NOS aluminum grill out of the black truck and put in a chrome one right before I sold it!!

Mines got a fairly stock look to it as it is.
Black paint, Wide whites, and a bit of a drop in the rear end is all I'm looking to do to her.

1/25 scale stocker

Re: Where are the stockers?
 
Great looking trucks! Click on photo to enlarge. I have to take more photo's.I got the buildsheet and bill of sale from dealer for this truck. Note the "west coast" mirrors and faux white walls. 3 on the tree in-line 6. I am thinking of adding power steering because after three shouder operations she's getting hard to steer. Any opinions as to the affect on value? I need some hubcaps, and a passenger side windshield wiper.

Here's a slice of a 1/25 scale model of a '64 fleetside. I mounted this on a plaque and gave it as a trophy in one of my truck meets. (same model kit as the Ned's plumbing truck above.)

Here's my real truck:

This is the new power plant that is in the process of being hooked up.

Re: Where are the stockers?
 
you got a mopar thermo-quad on there?

Hilandr451 11-20-2008 12:12 AM

Re: Where are the stockers?
 
Yup! Although I'm not so sure it's off of a Mopar. Turns out Chevy was using Carter AFB's in the late sixties - and the thermoquad was on it when I bought it - bolted right to a stock 327 4bbl intake manifold with out an adapter.

I just transplanted this mildly built '66 327 with Edelbrock RPM Performer Cam/Intake/Carb combination, double-hump heads and HEI. It has 2-1/2" aluminized exhaust and Series 40 Flow Masters out the back. It is mated to a Turbo 400 with a Lokar Classic Truck automatic floor shifter.

Perhaps you will get more feedback, by posting your question about dropping your truck in another post, maybe in the Suspension forum and not "Where are the stockers?".

Re: Where are the stockers?
 
That is for sure...stay the heck away from LILRED with anything relating to changing the truck from anything but STOCK !!!:lol::lol::lol:

Especially, regarding changing the height !!!:lol::lol::lol:

PM me and I will give you all the info you need !!!

OH, and don't run steel chrome rims on any of your trucks, as they are NOT STOCK !!!:lol::lol::lol:

Just messing with you LILRED...you know I'm kidding !!!

Chief:

Not what I would expect as a site Moderator, but I know you don't mean anything by that.

Don't get offended because I like to preserve the vintage looks/lines of the 4-5-6 Chevy trucks...In all honesty, what you guys are able to do is pretty amazing and I admire the skill and creativity required to do the things you do.

I admire the work done by you and many of the other customizer/fabricators and I respect the expertise offered by you and the others that customize their 4-5-6 Chevy trucks.
