Just when you quit looking one will find you

I had decided it was time to quit looking for projects till I get my own shop built. Next thing I know a 67 SWB step follows me home, well it didn’t follow I had to drag it but it wasn’t kicking and screaming.

It not in bad shape, body is good maybe a rocker, engine, trans, bed floor, & fuel tank are needed. Theirs some stuff the PO did I’m not thrilled with. But it dose have front disk, power breaks, tilt, & I’m not sure on the rear end yet.



You just got to love new projects they get the creative ideas bouncing around in your skull

Thanks every one for the comments, they are appreciated.

Randy70C-10 – The guy told me yea most of the engine is there Just the heavy pieces.

CHEVY & GMC FOREVER – yea that falls in to the not sure if I like it category.

I like how the thermostat housing is installed. Was the radiator somewhere new, or did he use a round-about way to get there?

It looks like he pulled one bolt and floped it around and pulled the thermostat. I get the feeling some one started to strip a lot of little stuff off this truck to get something else on the road.

Stepsides with the side spare are the way to go. Of course I may be a little prejudice.

Longhorn Man – Yep noticed that and with no transmission the only thing keeping the block from flipping over backwards is the dist. cap.


mooneyes4b – Yep finely got it out of there and under some shelter Saturday.



67_C-30 – If you have the time for me to figure out what path I’m going to take I’ll let you know.
Seriously thinking about putting the blower motor from the C20 in this one but then I lose the uniqueness of it.



And again thanks every one for the comments

Chevy67Tk,

I'm in no hurry. I am building my truck to use, and I have got accustomed to a sliding rear. I don't particularly like the look of them, but they are useful in the sumnmer as hot as it gets down here and for hearing someone guiding you to a trailor, etc. Just keep me in mind. Thanks!
