Interesting, and you sure have got my attention. How did it work out that you have Spoke Wheels on one side and Budd Wheels on the other??

Don't sweat the the little stuff Bill, just paint the right side of the truck white and the left side black, then people would think you had 2 trucks, not just one.

By the way, the 5.9 and 545 looks good in there, look how easy it is to work on. Why can't they all be that simple.

ive got a 69 c/40 dump truck we use it on the farm constantly. It really needs some tlc but i am having trouble finding parts. I have heard c10 thru c/30 doors will work on this truck is this true. that would make more parts available. any body got info that would help

The parts for your Doors should all work with no problem. Check with your local "real" parts store or NAPA for Brake Parts. Check with your local Heavy Fleet Truck store for 2-Speed Selector parts. Either store could also have both parts available.

If you are still having problems finding parts, there is a guy over at Stovebolt.com who is real good at finding some harder to find parts. He also has a lot of books to look up what's available. If you go over there go to the Big Bolt section.

Absolutely beautiful.
I see that it is a '67, but tell us more about it. What engine and trans do you have? Bill |

You have some awesome truck Dino! I don't think I have seen one that I haven't liked yet.

Thought I would share my photos of my current build to any that may not have viewed it.
Currently in build process, but the end is near... Couple pics in the various stages... My Build Thread http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=503247 |

I like the looks of your truck.
Looks like you aren't that far from me either. Greg. |

Re: "BIG" truck forum C/40, C/50, C/60 and the like...
i wonder if anyone ever tried to build one with a srw bed and used a set of front arches to make it wider , i seen a few of them made like the one youre having
maibe sectioning the rearfenderflares 3 to 4 inches so the distance between the arch and the top of the rearflares are about equal to the front flares would improve the look i suck at photoshop so i tried it in paint http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...psfd2c8584.jpg |

I have really enjoyed all the trucks in this thread. Thanks.
Edit- sorry, I have a ford. I didnt realize this was a Chevy Gmc thread. I would rather have a Chevy. This is my first but I dont think it will be my last. I just happened to come up with this truck (I originally got it for the Cummins in it) but now I'm hooked. I want to build an older one. |

Chevy, GMC, Ford, Dodge or whatever... I think a most of us truely appreciate any great truck! I think it would be cool to see you start a build thread in the Alternate Tinkerings forum so we can follow your progress. That's going to be one slinky beast for sure! :metal: |
