I saw a neat truck today... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I say thanks,too.I like the truck and I think it`s original paint that`s been sanded on to prep for paint that hasn`t happened yet.The comments are on the false claims,which always raise some talk no matter what the subject.The truck was gone over about 15+ years ago is my guess.Those 454 emblems have been out that long.I wonder why the grille doesn`t fit.The shine makes me think it`s a repro that fits real bad.It`s a custom with stuf added like knobs and a pedal.The cluster is a repro or rechrome with a mylar applique kit on that,the chromed ashtray,and the chromed glovebox...no Cheyenne Super parts.The hubs are either Ford or 69/70.I wonder how it got chrome glass trim when it was a custom.On 71/72s the 4wheel drive emblem was dropped because the engine badge goes under the light where the 454 badge is.
