Dads new truck... " Shrek "

[Frijolito1988]

So my dad just bough this truck today. The paint is something else to say the least. Here are the specs

67 Stepside shortbed

Small Window

Power Steering

Power brakes

5 lugs all around

Disc brakes upfront

250 inline six / 5 speed

Paid $2500.


So all in all I really like this truck, it will make a great companion to my 68 Fleetside shortbed. When he brought it home this morning it had some huge ugly tires, so we had to fix that right away. I had some American Racing Hopsters laying around and we put those on there, 17's in the back, 15's up front. Also I had a pair of 67-68 Chrome side view miror and that replaced the original ones that were painted green too LOL. ( Still have to make the holes for the right side. ) Put the a Chevy bow tie in the front grill that I had laying around .

Now for the Disc up fronts, I am not sure if the PO put them from a a 71-72 , or 73-87, he does not know as the previous owner did it. The owner rebuilt the engine a few years ago and the engine bay is really clean , but we are having problems with the carb , more than likely needs a rebuild .

and last but not least. The guy says it has a 5 speed + reverse ? What manual tranny did these trucks come with or what 5 speed could fit on these 250s ?

Here are some pics.

When it came home this morning.
