Your new toy looks real solid. What are your plans?

ChevLoRay · 01-14-2008, 06:21 AM

Pre-patina'd huh? Where are you in Bryant? Where did you find that truck? I'm guessing you put the wheels on it, but it looks really neat, as is. Congrats.

HavinSomeFun · 01-14-2008, 06:21 AM

Does it have a six in it now?
I kinda like that scruffy look!

HavinSomeFun · 01-14-2008, 06:25 AM

I am off reynolds road, it was one I found in our paper located in North Little Rock. Has been parked for the past 17 years in a barn. and yes I put the wheels on this morning I couldn't take the black steel wheels with mud tires on them!

bad6772 · 01-14-2008, 06:43 AM

lbpd719 · 01-14-2008, 06:45 AM

whatnow123 · 01-14-2008, 06:59 AM

awesome find! looks really strait but I see a lot of sanding in your future.

AuggieStyle · 01-14-2008, 07:03 AM

great looking truck i would drive it for a while just like she sits. looks good

**LockDoc** · 01-14-2008, 07:12 AM

Looks like a light wet sand, clear it and drive it. maybe a patina'd logo on the door.... WhaHoooo! That would be slick....

HavinSomeFun · 01-14-2008, 07:21 AM

Yes it currently has a 250 six banger in it, I drove it around the neighborhood earlier and it did great. I will do the engine swap last. I considered the wet sand and shop sign on the door. However, I'm going back to solid white with chrome bumpers and calling it good for now.

I appreciate all the positive comments!

Then it will look like this....

Sweet72 · 01-14-2008, 07:23 AM

Very nice pickup. I want a '67 so bad!

Ol'Rover · 01-14-2008, 07:29 AM

great find! looks like its been well taken care of, would look cool without paint, as a rat rod

ratrod67 · 01-14-2008, 07:53 AM

Looks like a nice start for a nice truck. I wish my truck had paint like that when I started. I'd probably just drop it, add some www tires and roll.

**Stocker** · 01-14-2008, 09:46 AM

Looks like a good solid, straight truck. Nice find!!

c10addict · 01-14-2008, 10:11 AM

lower it... red steelies with white walls and rock the hell out of it!!! I wish I had one exactly like that!!! my shop truck would be done!

HavinSomeFun · 01-14-2008, 10:19 AM

throw on some side molding and that would be it

19673ontree · 01-14-2008, 12:34 PM

MAN ! that is one clean truck !
several key thing's I like about it , #1 it's a factory custom with the custom style door panel's and the custom outer door emblem's and body trim , #2 it's solid as it can be !!! #3 I love the color it is the same color scheme as my 67 camaro the white go's good with the blue interior , that's probably the best 67 I have seen in a long time !!!

Sport/Truck · 01-14-2008, 12:57 PM

Just remove the mirrors, lower it & its ready to roll!
Nice truck!

HavinSomeFun · 01-14-2008, 01:24 PM

it will !! your truck look's better than mine did when I got mine ,,,
here is a before shot of mine if you had not seen it ,,,

chevy88 · 01-14-2008, 01:56 PM

Perfect truck to start fixing up, and nothing major to work on other than paint. How many miles does that truck have on it ? Also what do those old 292's get for gas mileage ?

HavinSomeFun · 01-14-2008, 02:35 PM

Not sure of the MPG on the 6 bangers. I drove it around today about 100 miles of puttin down the road and it used an 1/8th of a tank. The Odometer shows 11,500 miles now. I'm not sure if its 111,000 or not. Looking at the interior it makes me wonder. It was a farm truck that didnt get used much. They also had a 65 pontiac with 60,000 miles all original and it looked perfect also. I know the 6 banger in this truck has no smoke or blow by at all.
