Ol' Stella 1965 GMC Build
Hello all, I have been visiting your site ever since I got my 65 gmc. Here are pics when I first got it. I bought it for $750 and it runs perfectly. I eventually would like to switch out the motor,transmission and put some disc brakes on it.
Here is the progress so far: http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y...1/IMG_1708.jpg http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y...t111/photo.jpg http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y.../photo-1-1.jpg http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y...1/102_0044.jpg http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y...102_0045_2.jpg http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y...102_0047_2.jpg http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y...102_0046_2.jpg |

Re: Ol' Stella 1965 GMC Build
Hey that looks like a good Idaho truck !! Welcome from Star Idaho.
Does that still have the 305 V-6? Lots of guys here still using them. They look really cool with the plaid valve covers!! |

Welcome to the forum from another Idaho member :D
There's getting to be a number of members here from Idaho. Was the frame on your truck tweaked? I see it's on a frame rack. |
Re: Ol' Stella 1965 GMC Build
leave the patina on the grill and front bumper please, oh please!
|
Re: Ol' Stella 1965 GMC Build
Hello fellow Idaho members.
@Captainfab- The frame is not tweaked to my knowledge... @narx66gmc - ditching the patina....not the look I am going for. @bubba327 - Where is Star Idaho? Yes it still has the 305 v6 |
Re: Ol' Stella 1965 GMC Build
If I could buy a truck like that for 750 here on the east coast I would have my own fleet.
Great deal and a great start. |
Re: Ol' Stella 1965 GMC Build
Star is located between Eagle and Middleton--- west of Boise about 20 miles North of Nampa about 14 miles population 1700
I have been to Driggs a few times and It is Beautiful country . Just a little too cold when the winter winds howl! |
Re: Ol' Stella 1965 GMC Build
Also I am going to do a shop logo on the side. Here is the logo I am going to put, this was created by my good friend Aaron Draplin over at DDC.

Re: Ol' Stella 1965 GMC Build
Looking good !!
Just wondering about the bed floor, It that a flat steel floor? Post a few pics on how that went together. As quick as that is going together, you will be cruising around before snow fall !!:chevy: |
Re: Ol' Stella 1965 GMC Build
@Bubba the steel was already in the bed we just sealed it up.
Paint http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y...1/102_0055.jpg http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y...1/102_0065.jpg How she sits today. Hopefully we will be done on monday. Then I need to move to the interior. http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y...1/IMG_8147.jpg http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y...1/IMG_8148.jpg http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y...1/IMG_8149.jpg http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y...1/IMG_8156.jpg http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y...1/IMG_8158.jpg http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y...1/IMG_8162.jpg http://i805.photobucket.com/albums/y...1/IMG_8164.jpg |
Re: Ol' Stella 1965 GMC Build
Well we finished up the truck on Saturday and its now in the garage.I think this how she'll sit for the winter. Next summer I plan to drop a new motor,tranny as well as disc brakes and slam her on the ground. Let me know what you guys think.
