Well there is mine. I got to take her on the maiden voyage today.:metal::metal:

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

Okay this is my project truck.

a 1967 Chevy C20 longwell base with a 6 cylinder.

Needs a whole lotta work and more than I care to know all about.

But will a little time and effort and cool resource board such as this one I think I might be on the right track.

Let me know what ya think. Click on the image for more.

Right now I have a problem to sort out, either fix/replace or add a new fuel tank under the bed. Fuel is fuel and still ain't the cheapest thing. Is there one that can be fitted to have the filler neck under a license plate? Let me guess no one makes it but can be built by someone (no fab person here). :lol:

Nice truck Jokers69!

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

Thank You. Just happy to be able to drive it .

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

'68 long box. 406 sbc.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

if you dont mind me asking, where did you get your glass hood and how much, how tall is the cowl, and how well does the hood fit?

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

Its a unlimited products 4" cowl hood, complete bolt on. It fits like crap but looks cool far away. I really wish Harwood would make one for the 67-68. I would be all over it. The hood was about $375, the shipping hurts, was half the price.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

ssssswwweeeeeeeettttt motor!!!!!!!! I take it that is the 406. what rear end do you have in that truck? dana 60??? nice truck!

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

Funny. I have a 6" cowl hood from unlimited also. I think I spent the better part of a month reworking it both to fit and look decent enough to use. The outside was very rough when I got it. You could still see the cloth hanging out from under the cowl.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

I see you decided to go with the low HP option!!!! LOL

Is that P.I.R. or Woodburn you are racing at?? What was the ET?

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

The rear axle is the original that I rebuilt and put 4:10 and a 35 spline spool & axles from mosier w/ wilwood 4 piston cal's.
Yep its a 406sbc. So so much fun to drive.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

Yes i'm sure it would fit better if I spent a little time on cutting it and reliving some of the bow that runs down the fenders. I'm no body guy, I can build stuff, thats as far as it goes.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

Thats at Woodburn. The fastest ET is 12.0 @ 111mph @ a 1.64 60'
The more I raced it the slower it got. Toasted 3rd gear. Its all better now and hoping to hit 11.70's with the new trans.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

Nice truck, need to post you're build on the racing section.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

Here is my truck. 68 C20 Longhorn with a hopped up 292 inline six and 4 speed out of an 80 Camaro. It is a blast to drive.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

Thanks, there is a picture of it on Longhorn Man's website from when a different guy owned it.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

Picked mine up about 4 weeks ago. 1972 Super LWB with buckets. Unfortunately the 402 has been replaced with a 454 but I can live with that for now. Got to get the rust under control first.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

Nice Find.. With the Cheyene Package, big block and factory A/C your truck is well worth restoring. You guys in the south are lucky to still have those (almost) rust free trucks to buy..

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

is the console orginal?

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

Looks like it.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

If its not, you would never be able to tell.

I will be 100% sure its the original if I sell it - lol

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

I would have to say the console is not original... only because the seats aren't. The seats look like they are from a 73 to 91 Blazer. I had some in my truck for awhile.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

wait i think i am wrong. the seats don't look to be high back buckets.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

I dont have the expeirence you guys have so this is the pic I went from to assume they were original or atleast look that way. If they aren't, just another thing to put on the list.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

I was wrong. Looks like yo ugot the real thing. Very Cool!

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
