thanks guys...as for plans, just typical stuff eventually

1. power steering/power disc brakes
2. switch to 5-lug front/rear
3. lowered suspension
4. re-wire electricals

later down the road i'll deal with getting all body work done & repaint it, but I just want a decent cruiser for now

Very nice!! Could you post a picture of your steering wheel?

Byronic · 08-07-2009, 08:50 AM

So... How do you handle the panhandle heat with no AC?

I have a weight loss program driving my panel around town.

Nice truck.

Maybe we can get together to talk trucks.I am in Panama City and would love to see your truck.

Was this truck on Craigslist forsale? Very nice truck.

well, i work at a gym, so no need for the weight loss program

my VW daily beater doesn't have a working AC either, so i'm getting used to it...the VW is a Cabriolet, which is convertible, so that helps sometimes....you gonna be at the Cruizin the Coast or the Emerald Coast Cruizin? i'm gonna try my best to make both of those shows

Seriously, that truck is sharp.

aggie91 · 08-07-2009, 01:43 PM

Super nice truck.

Is it me or is the emblem on the cowl filler part in the wrong place? I know that is a 65 year model emblem, but I thought in 65 it was above the body line. the 66 had a more square shaped emblem on the front fender.

Very nice truck, would not mind having one like it...

72BlckButy · 08-07-2009, 01:50 PM

Wow... that thing is nice!!!

Excellent buy, and I like your plan for it.

you are correct...it has '65 emblems...i'll probably just shave them in the future...someone previously filled in the backup lights as well; & i can see the ring outline under the paint, so they didn't do a very good job, haha

Imperial Kustom · 08-07-2009, 03:28 PM

Nice!!

62 Bowtie · 08-07-2009, 07:26 PM

19GMC63 · 08-08-2009, 09:45 PM

Wow, she's a beauty... big back window to boot.

likaroc13 · 05-25-2010, 01:14 AM

just adding a couple updated pics of the interior since it's now clean...haven't done much lately but getting ready for a 5-lug swap with power steering/brakes...once that gets under way, i'll start a build thread

72BlckButy · 05-25-2010, 07:46 AM

Glad you brought this back to the top... can't wait to see the build thread.
