Progress PICS, wrecked '67 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

walker · 02-08-2004, 11:15 PM

She's a comin! Slow but sure the repairs are getting done. Feels a little more slow than sure though. I got the bed side swapped over and repaired. Marker light welded up. Had to make a die to reform parts of the wheel opening that had been dented. Welded up all the holes in the rail and from the rope cleats on the side. Sprayed a primer sealer on it. I now have a six color truck! I would like to get her in to a paint shop soon. Think I am going to do a color change and paint it Cherry Red with a white roof, grey bed liner. Also, I had a buddy of mine reupholster the seat for me, I got that in there too.
Any member in the PHX area in the body and paint trade? I would be interested in coming to see you, PM me.

walker · 02-09-2004, 08:59 PM

Thanks for all the support. Hooter, the frame was bent pretty good, $300 to true it up and align the front end. The spotlight was a dealer option, it has the GM logo on it. I like it enough to keep it on there.
Yes progress feels good. Now if I could get my Scout to pass emissions, my tractor hydraulics working, the driveway to my garage built up, paint on the truck, fix the...
