The beginning of the unnamed 64 build - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

SuperWho · 08-13-2009, 11:16 AM

Hey guys, found this site, and thought I would post up. Lots of great builds and info here. Long story short, got this truck for 800 bucks from my father in law. Sat 5 years, has a 350 with 700r4. Went out and got it running in no time. Still runs like a champ with only problem so far being a header leak, from a warped header on the driver side. Haven't decided what route to go, but rat rod seems to be at the top of my options.

Look forward to you guys' input and suggestions. Sorry no burnout yet, gotta get some new meats on the back.

Probably not, it's completely hidden from view of the road.

I agree. It's rattle can satin black for now. I just think these long beds look good in satin black, and leaving the white stripe and top set it off. I had thought about going all black, but when I pulled the tape off, it just looked right. Gotta polish up the chrome now to make it shine and order some white letter for the tailgate.

Still haven't come up with one.

good luck!
