It looked really good to begin with, so it should be awesome when your done. Did you do the work to get it to the "before" stage? Your "before" stage looks better than my "after" stage will

CUSTOM 72 · 02-21-2007, 04:51 PM

Thanks Dave - I Bought The Truck Like The First Pick, I Think Everything Has Potential.

bad72c10 · 02-21-2007, 08:40 PM

Do you still have the wheels in the first pic? I really like those, are they 15s? I may be interested if you are interested in selling. Thanks, Justin PM me if you think that'd be better.

lpaine · 02-21-2007, 11:36 PM

Good to see another B.C. member on here. It looks like you're off to a good start with that clean truck. Welcome to the madness.Keep on truckin', Lew

I feel the same way. Sounds like Gr8 plans. Good luck with the truck.

Nice ride!!!!

CHYNSPR · 02-23-2007, 11:13 AM

Welcome from the Island. I lived in Winfield for a couple of years, great area you are in!

Nice truck, too!

C10-Driver · 02-23-2007, 11:26 AM

Welcome from Kelowna. I have seen your truck around and think it looks awesome. It should turn out real nice when you're done. Look forward to seeing more progress.

There is getting to be quite a few of us from the Okanagan. Another local board member mentioned a while back we should all get together sometime. There are at least 4 other non-board members I know of locally with 67-72 trucks. Looks like we could have quite a gathering.

CUSTOM 72 · 02-23-2007, 02:54 PM

Hey C/10 Driver

I Think I Have Seen Your Ride On Bottom Wood Lake Road In Winfiled. If So I Love It. Yes I Think We Should Hook Up Some Time. Do You Have Any More Pics?

I think you must be thinking of someone else's truck. I live in the "downtown" area of Kelowna but, as I said before, I have seen you truck driving around several times.

Here is a picture I took last summer.

The show from the picture was the Hot Rod Cafe show in Post Falls Idaho. Unfortunately, they won't be hosting a show a show this year. It's too bad. It was a good venue.

My hope is to have my truck finished for the Father's day show this year... That gives me 4 months

.

BTW, I like the look of your new wheels (bling-bling). Post a picture when you get them hung on your truck.

LUV2XCLR8 · 02-23-2007, 06:29 PM

Good looking starter, can't wait to see the aftermath

CUSTOM 72 · 02-23-2007, 06:41 PM

lets see how many 67-72s we can get to Radium this fall.

67cst · 02-24-2007, 02:22 AM

hey guys, nice trucks...im here in kelowna too. i havent been on the board a whole lot in the last year or so. i used to be on here daily for an hour or so sometimes even more. been back on it lately though asking lots of questions because i did a engine and trans swap this winter and a bunch of other stuff. anyways im definately into meeting up this summer if you guys are all into the idea, maybe go on a cruise or something. we could get some nice group truck shots. here is my 67, almost all back together here, cant wait for the roads to get swept so i can insure it and go for a burn

67CST... I saw your truck at Budget Brake the other day. Real nice looking ride. I know Art and Iris quite well and their son Sean who is a buddy of yours. I also have the same fuel cell as yours. The guys at RAW made up one of the 3 for my truck.

I would definitely be into a meeting this summer. Sounds like we should be able to get a good gathering of 67-72's in Kelowna. As I mentioned before, there are at least 4 others (not on the board) that would probably be up to something like this.
