Re: 1966 Chevy SWB Gasser influenced truck
I thought I posted a while back that I call this truck "The Pusher"( notice title of youtube clip in my signature). That Steppenwolf song was playing one night in the garage and I looked at my truck and said perfect . When I started building this truck I wanted that 60's dragrace/pushtruck vibe. It must be from my old gasser, fuel altered books that I drool over,and love all the old trucks in the backround that pulled those HOTRODS to the track.
Anyways thanks for the compliments. Truck is up for "adoption" but not sure if I could let it go will have to see what happens. |
Re: 1966 Chevy SWB Gasser influenced truck
this reminds me of the pro-street debate :rolleyes:
Hickup, you beat me to it, I agree whole-heartedly :thumbs: Hardwaa, I hope it doesn't get adopted, hang on to it if you can :D |
Re: 1966 Chevy SWB Gasser influenced truck
Hey the truck looks badazz.

Re: 1966 Chevy SWB Gasser influenced truck
Im glad it was finally considered a support truck.....put some bumper guards on the front or a push plate and then it can also be a salt flats push car too! By the way that vid clip is insane, short but so motivating! love the stance, sound and look....your project is actually really great and period correct for any route a owner of that day was going for.

Re: 1966 Chevy SWB Gasser influenced truck
One of my favorite trucks on this site, and I wouldn't change a thing because it's perfect. I had forgotten how good Cragars looked on 60-66 trucks.
Your truck would look awesome at Bakersfield push-starting a nostalgia Top Fueler. |

Re: 1966 Chevy SWB Gasser influenced truck
That is the baddest MF'in truck I've seen in here or anywhere else! I am so in love with it! The color is pretty close to my 63's. I just wanna tell you that I am going to bite a HUGE chunk of your style man! I have my bags ready, I need to start gathering up the rest of my parts, including a DM & especially similar looking wheel/tire combo! Hope you don't mind! Mine's a step-side anyway!:lol:
