Re: 1972 c/50

gcburdic, actually, I found a complete 427 hood off of a fire truck, and just found an NOS set of 427 emblems on ebay. What are you doing with those?? Do you have any other C/40-C-60 Parts?? Thanks alot Scott Chalk

Re: 1972 C/50

Made some progress tonight. Here is a before and after shot of power washing an engine compartment. Prob cant tell the difference, but its alot cleaner now. I own a restoration shop, so I will prob. go crazy with detailing this truck. Which I didnt wanna do in the begining, because I wanna use to truck to haul my cars and for my business. But I figured what the hell. If you're gonna do it, why not do it right. Plus some pics of the 427 hood I was talking about. Scott

Funny you ask....I went over to a C50 truck that was listed on CL last year and found this stuff....here's the thread I started...http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=397741...I really went for the tach dash, but came home with a whole lot more....basically behind the cab was completely cut
I look forward to watching you build yours up

Re: 1972 C/50

Well, I made a tough decision tonight. I have decided to take off the complete front clip and take the cab off the frame. I wasnt going go this far with this truck, but as I said. I like to do things the right way. I guess thats the only way I know. LOL So more pics of the disassembly to come this weekend. Scott Chalk

Re: 1972 c/50

Sorry for such a long time with no updates. My dad has been having some health issues. He has been in and out of the hospital so I have had no spare time. I have landed A LOT of NOS parts for my truck. I will post pics of the NOS parts if you guys are interested in seeing pics. Hope to start working on the truck again in a week or two. will take lots of pics.

Scott
