...and here is the pinstriping I did on the ashtray...I don't smoke anymore, so the ashtray I use for old bolts, nuts, MAD magazine buttons, Impko decals, any other odds and ends laying around. Three attempts at the design on the ashtray using "1-Shot" and stripped with a "O" Mack. I was trying to keep to the western flourish idea, not so much a geometric west coast thing...more of a "Nudie suit" Texas thing. Vintage Impko water decal next to it.

Thank ya, Buttrock..! I love it. I wake up in the night sometimes and go lift the shade and look at it. I feel so fortunate to have gotten it (truck is only a few months old for me). I actually have a ledger the old timer who owned it kept that lists EVERY single repair and every single FUEL UP since 1967! Seriously. I'm continuing it of course, since I believe in the fact that none of us own these trucks...we're only taking care of it until the next person gets it (but if I have anything to say about it that will be a L O N G time from now)!

By the way, Buttrock: Your '70 is a knock-out too! Man, love the color of that one.

Muscle tough! Love the '70s green, with that white cab man. Sweet.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 

Thanks El Rondo. Was going to shortbed it but decided to leave it long,LS it and repaint that factory color.

Yeah. I couldn't keep my "hands" off of this one:

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 

The reason I ask is a set of those came with my 71, but I thought they were car hubcaps! Mine have no emblems, just a plain thin stainless cap. I do like them, but didn't think they were correct for the truck.

Thanks!

You sure did a wonderful job.
That's just right.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II

Beautiful 67 El Rondo

sdec72, that is one awesome truck, I wouldn't do a thing to it

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 

Thanks, Mayo. 95% close now to daily driver. Almost there. Having some lurching issues at high speeds only on occasions...fuel problem of some kind, but I'm honing in on it.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 

Thanks guys I'll get some info posted soon with a few more pics.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 

I have been watching for several months now, and love all of the quality trucks and even better stories and people on here.

This is my 72, I inherited this from my father's uncle in 2001. Unfortunately it has sat untouched since then. He bought it used in 72. I believe it may have been either a demo or sales associates truck. It only has 92k original miles with the 402/400 and 4:11 gearing. I hope to get it cleaned up and running reliably as I'm about to turn this into my daily driver. I'll see about getting some more photos up when I can. Also, hoping to do a 4/6 drop on her, but scratching my head on how to achieve that height without losing the 8 lug axles and hubs. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Joe

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 

Very nice!!

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 

That's gonna make a sweet ride. Personally love the patina on the paint job. Hope your camper shell removes easier than mine did when I scored it. Mine was screwed, bolted AND "Liquid Nails"...! Nightmare.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 

Thanks! I know mine is also bolted on, but hopefully nothing else. I haven't decided if I want to keep the shell or not. If I do, it would be for winter only. It does have the wood bed, but needs some care. I too like the patina, but want to address some more serious cancer spots on the lower quarters being back as a daily. Some minor wiring fix and the heater core and vent box need to be replaced. Probably will switch to Vintage Air. For now, that will be it until spring.

Everything stacked up...It helped keep some floor space. I built a 3 car garage and it filled up fast!

Gonna go rear bumper-less on that un'? What color she gonna be? Hell, I like the grey primer...

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 

Hey guys I'm new to the forum (long time lurker/reader). Here is my 67 C20. First mod was to add my Miss America license plate.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 

Here's an updated pic of mine. Getting real close

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 

That's a beauty!

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 

El Rondo - I'm not sure if I'm gonna run a bumper or roll pan. I'm also thinking about going with a charcoal grey or gun metal grey. I do like the look of the primer though. lol

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 

seth7483: Didja restore those caps? I did on my '67...just wondering if you did. Great truck, man!

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II
 

I normally post in the 66 section but I saw this at work and thought you guys would like it. This is a 1968 C30 with a dump bed hauling an 2000ish Ford Escort.
