well the first thing was creative customs "pink freak" (the truck in my avatar) so I went to the salvage yard in search of parts to do my own clone of that truck... they didn't have anything similar, but they did have a 61 plymouth.. just from a Quick visual in the yard, it looked like the cowl panel would match up with the plymouth fender. I like the look of the plymouth front end...but the rest of the car not so much, its like they had 3 different guys style it, and they were not allowed to talk to each other:lol: the rest of the truck kinda came together out of necessity or from the parts I had. |

New tires and wheels...not the wheels I wanted, but still looks pretty good I guess.

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
Not bad Martin. Put some bands on them and you will be set.
One question though...............You aren't calling that a 64 are you ? Just wandering since the emblem is a 65. |
Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
It's a '64 VIN

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
Gotcha Martin. I just saw the emblem on the cowl was a 65 emblem.
Nice looking truck though!! What engine do you have in it ? Do you have the 3 on the tree or auto ? |
Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
The engine size is still a small mystery. It's either a 230 or 250. It has a very generic block number that covers the entire spectrum of years it was used and I'm still trying to trace down the number next to the distributor, and it has the 3 on the Tree.
It may well be a '65. I didn't see a distinct manufacture date. When I ran the numbers it just said 00/00/1964. So it may very well be a year model '65 manufactured in 1964 (which makes sense). I'm still trying to get as many detailes on it as I can. |

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
I was born in '64, so I'm not the original owner. I did happpen to stumble across a local guy at Kragen today with a very nice '66 C20/327 that he restored. He confirmed it's a year model '65, built in '64. He also said it's more likely a 230 than a 250. I'm cool with that....
Yes, the title say's 00/00/1964. Thanks for more info with the data sheet. I'll see what numbers I can get off that. There's a plate on the drivers side kick panel with the trim data on it. I just can't see it to read it. I tried taking a couple pictures of it to blow it up but they came out blurred. |

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
Yup, that's it. From what I'm learning, that package is pretty common. I'm thinking about going with a V-8/TH350 over time. I'm not in a hurry to change it out, but I think I'm going to start getting things together. I don't want a hot-rod, but a nice "driver" is what I'm after.

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
I got this truck for 100 bucks from a lady with a clean and currently registered non op title. I have put little money into it so far. When I get some more money together I will paint it the original light blue.

I paid $200 for mine. Looks like you got an even better deal at $100. Your off to a great start.

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
That if I'm not mistaken is a deluxe steering wheel for a 66 minus the ring. Nice project. 3/4 ton, good hauler! Not a criticism but black in SoCal, Northern Fat people sweat.LOL

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
here is my 65 heap....i'm new, name is seth, live in central IL...bought this survivor on ebay from texas about 2 months ago... very solid, a little rust in the usual spots on the front fenders and a little on the doors....have a few small spots on the cab floor to repatch...front grill is tweaked in one sopt pretty good, alot of little dents and dings but nothing major....283, the tranny is messed up though, originally 3 on the tree but someone hacked a hole in the floor and put some sort of floor shifter kit in it and they basically ripped 1st out of it, its difficult to find gears, but still somewhat drivable, havent had it out on the highway yet, just neighbord streets, so we'll see......

Here's some pics of my '66, taken at today's Brownsville "Stand By Me" Cruise In. It's a celebration at the town of Brownsville, Oregon where the movie "Stand By me" was filmed in '86.
