Man i love your truck. The truck was near perfect when you found it, so the before/after change isn't as dramatic as some, but I still think its one of the coolest around

72BlckButy · 11-04-2009, 04:03 PM

Thanks a lot BluTrukker! It has been a labor of love, and I still pinch myself each time I walk into the garage.

You know, I never really cared for a '64 Impala, but loved the '60-63's. Guess they were too boxy. Anyway, I parted one out...a white '64SS hdtp with black interior.....

PLease tell me about the seat that you have in the blue truck, it looks comfortable.

stueber68 · 01-11-2010, 11:52 PM

This is depressing. I've had mine for nearly 10 years and it is nowhere near "after".
