Re: Panel trucks, don't see alot of them on the forum.
here is my 64
this is what was left of it last thur night and it went to the scrap yard on fri ![]() By rondavid at 2011-08-31 ![]() By rondavid at 2011-08-31 ![]() By rondavid at 2011-08-31 all that I retained from the old one was the door post with vin and the model plate from the fire wall and will put it back together around those 2 pieces I have a 66 suburban body but does need a fair bit of rust repair and will just part it out when I get the one down below ![]() By rondavid at 2011-08-31 ![]() I am biking over to Surrey tomorrow to have a look at this one. it would save me a lot of rust repair if it is as good as I was told it was by another fellow that was looking at buying it but forfeited his deposit.the truck come up from e. washington and has an 84 4 x 4 frame under it and was never reg as a 4 x 4 done there. before you can get them registered here they have to go through inspection and I doubt that it will make it. he orig wanted 3500. for it I think and I will pick it up for 1250. if there is minimal rust under there . there is some. I have a real good front end sheet metal and every other part to put it back together ron By rondavid at 2011-08-23 ![]() By rondavid at 2011-08-23 ![]() By rondavid at 2011-08-23 |

Re: Panel trucks, don't see alot of them on the forum.
kc0kfg I like the look of your truck.
Hope you get it Ron. I prefer the look of the tailgate and hatch.

Re: Panel trucks, don't see alot of them on the forum.
I have a soft spot for the OG look. Nate does beautiful work.
Has anyone cut down a panel to Blazer size? There isn't a 60-66 blazer, is there?

Re: Panel trucks, don't see alot of them on the forum.
Now I read somewhere in my literature that there was a Special Delivery with a 96" wheelbase? I know the later Blazers were 106.5. The rear wheel house was right behind the doors. Looked almost clown car like as the proportions were so far off the regular 127" wheelbase. Anyone else hear or see of any?

Re: Panel trucks, don't see alot of them on the forum.
Thanks Aero, I have always has a spot in my heart for panels, they do have one drawback in the design, it can be fun changing lanes if you don't have a passenger to look in the next lane.

Re: Panel trucks, don't see alot of them on the forum.
Yes, yes you do.
Dino, do you have any build shots of yours? I have only seen a few pics of it, one when you first redid the interior a while back.

Re: Panel trucks, don't see alot of them on the forum.
Saw a good Suburban/ Panel rear bumper on a school bus conversion at the yard I was at today. 64-66 GMC 1 ton super long. No extra doors so everyone went in the front or through the rear. There's a big metal step protecting the bumper but its not attached to it.
amueller454 what wheels are you using?

Re: Panel trucks, don't see alot of them on the forum.
they are 15x10's i got from wheel vintiques. I actually ordered them through summit because it was cheaper than going straight to wheel vintiques.
