picked up a new truck! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Well, picked myself up another truck. This one is a a small project truck because I am supposed to just put an engine into it and be done with it.
My dad picked up a '69 Nova that had a real good 350 in it but we have bigger and better plans for the Nova so we wanted to put the engine into something.
So I found a '71 3/4 ton with a blown 350 so that I can put and engine into and probably just sell it. The problem is is that I am not sure of which truck I am going to sell just yet. I want a 4x4 in the end so I need to sell one truck now and then the other one when I get another commuter vehicle.
Anyways, here it is in all it's glory after I gave her a quick hose down. Haven't even picked up the inside yet.

GreenMystChevy,

Appears to me that you will need a few $$$ to begin this project. I'd be willing to buy that Chevelle from you.....I happen to have $500 burning a hole in my pocket!

Good luck and nice Chevelle!

I'll tell ya how you can help me out. You give me that '68 4x4 and you can take both my trucks off of my hands. See, you take two and give me one. You gain trucks and I gain space. Thanks bud. Just let me know when you are on my street, I'll come out and help you load them up.

Will the Chevelle be part of this trade? If so, I'll be there in an hour!

I have wanted a Chevell for a long time now. They are getting so damn expensive though. Don't know when I'll ever get one. I had a 69' Vette, that I sold. Am wanting to replace it with a 67'. That's next, then maybe I'll throw down the $$ for a Chevelle. If you have other pics of it, I would love to see them. Something about those muscle cars!

Nice vehicles on all counts...but yes that Chevelle is sweet...Is it a SS396 or 454 (maybe LS6 or LS7)?

GreenMystChevy · 01-27-2003, 06:14 PM

Thanks for the compliment guys. The Chevelle is definitely my pride and joy. It is a 396/350, L34. The LS-5 and LS-6 and 454's, I believe the LS-5 put out 400hp or so and the LS-6 was the famous 450hp. I don't remember an LS-7. Anyways, I know that I am lucky to have such a vehicle for the past few years and I'm only 20. Took a lot of blood, sweat, tears, and money to get it the way it is.

It won't be sold anytime soon.
