Re: Got another truck
Nice! Looks like it has a later engine and a '64-'66 grill, though (not like that's really a bad thing). Also has an HEI distributor in it as a bonus.

Re: Got another truck

Re: Got another truck
It looks like it has earlier the Custom Cab trim that wraps around the back of the cab. If it actually has that trim and the correct sail panels, those parts are probably worth two or three times as much as you gave for the whole truck.

Re: Got another truck
I think you should be reported for steeling or maybe get award for being a hero for saving two trucks lives.
Great score.

Re: Got another truck
Looks like a pretty good truck. And also looks like you got it for a a VERY VERY good price.

Re: Got another truck
Be sure to clean up the salvageable parts off that I6 and sell them....that HEI should clean up nicely...and you could probably make some money off it...The head off the engine may be in good shape..so you may be able to sell it to. Anyhow...nice truck for the money!

Re: Got another truck
REVOH it does have the custom cab sail panels and it DOES have the little trim that wraps around the rear of the window
i try to save em when i can! specially when they are as cheap as i find them! also if my brother doesnt give the i6 the ok to rebuild the entire motor will be for sale cheap enough to get it gone and allow me to move on with my build. |

Re: Got another truck
im not much of a trim guy, i take it off so people who will appreciate it more than i would can have the opportunity to have it, sure it would look good but its not that desirable to me.

Re: Got another truck
Yes, the trim around the winshield was part of the deluxe package. Its stainless steel. You have to remove the windshield to get the trim off as its installed in the gasket prior to the glass.
