Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

Take a look what hitched a ride home with me today and joined the rest of the 64-66 family. She is a 1966 C10 Crew Cab Short Bed Arizona Truck ordered and bought from Rudolph Chevrolet in Phoenix Az.

Why can't I ever find something like that. :waah:

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

I love it!

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

You should make it look just like the truck pulling it. Put a 5.3 in it with cruise and ac, same wheels and paint.

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

Man what a cool truck. Never find a truck like that here on the east coast.

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

Nice truck!

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

Wow, where did you find that one, that's awesome.

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

FREAKIN' AWESOME! It even has a short box 60's topper!

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

That DOES look nice ! Tell us more !!

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

And more pictures!!!!

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

Nice!!! But i want to see the red one in the garage----it seems it's setting a little high.

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

I will post more pictures soon. It is ironic that the tow vehicle a 2006 Chevy 1/2 ton 2WD is the same truck only 40 years newer.

My avatar picture is the same one in the garage. It sits stock height from the factory with 33x12.50x15 tires.

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

Very nice. My friend ray at united auto is doing one of those for Dino's dally project but it needed a few donee cabs to repair the rust. Yours looks very good. Is it complete? Nice find!

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

I don't think I've seen that variation before. The bed looks like a longbed with a one foot taken out of the front section. How long is the bed?

Very cool...

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

You guys asked for more!! Ask and you shall receive. Took the old guy camper off today. From all the parts I have collected over a 25 year span the rear bumper will be replaced next with a factory sport bumper, then front bumper, grill and wheels.

Very nice find.

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

Holy smoke... what a machine. I'll take one if you find more!!! Ha

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

what kinda of gauge is that in the cluster to the left of it where the vac or clock would go? or is it just a reflection?

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

Nice truck!! Did I see cruise control too?

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

Yes it was a long bed with some taken off the front, it is 6 1/2' just like a regular short bed but it is not the same measurements front and back like a regular short bed. The frame was extended some and the front of the bed was shortened some. I will have to get an exact measurement of both. I may or may not replace the bed with a regular short bed but will have to extend the frame more and shorten the frame at the rear.

The gauge is a mileage monitor gauge it must work off vacuum. It tells you if you mileage is poor, fair, good, engine at idle and engine decelerating. I will probably remove this at some point.

Yes there is cruise control added on to this but I will removed it at some point.

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

Good score!!
These ya don't see overhere, living across the pont!

Re: Picked Up A Hitch Hiker Today
 

Removed the gaudy looking rear bumper, overload springs, spare tire and spare tire carrier to make room for the factory sport bumper and receiver hitch(not installed yet).
