67 Finally back on the road! *pics*
After much tinkering and head scratching, I finally got my 67 running, for the first time in nine years

Hey I was thinking about driving my truck down to Bethleham someday to show a friend who hasn't seen it yet. Maybe if your not busy we could meet up and show off our rust

I went out and bought a voltage regulator for $22, still no fix. I'll pull the alternator and check it tomorrow
![]() ![]() Haywagon, I'd like to get together this weekend to show off our rust, but I'm going away this weekend. In a few weeks we'll have to get together. Anybody else in the Northeast? Matt

It's always better to have a running truck than a rusting pile of parts.

Re: 67 Finally back on the road!
I scored two dogdish caps from a friend and painted them with a rattlecan, then handplainted in the red. They turned out pretty nice. I've been doing little things on the truck here and there, but now that I'll be getting a new truck to use around the farm, I can tackle more involved projects with the '67. I'm looking for a hood and tailgate, since a family member (not me) managed to gently roll it under the back of a flatbed trailer and put a nice crease in the hood.
I'm amazed to see this old thread up, I must get some new pics up, the truck looks a lot better now.

Re: 67 Finally back on the road!
I'm at work right now, I'll get the pics up tomorrow. I occasionally even drive it to work (I'm an elementary school teacher) and it always gets lots of looks and comments (usually negative, but I don't care)

Re: 67 Finally back on the road!
6 years later, the motor looking (and running) much better than before, a few cosmetic upgrades. Next to come will be the hood (smashed under a flatbed, I wasn't driving it) tailgate and cab corners. I haven't accomplished nearly what I've wanted to since getting it back on the road 6 years ago, but I've been driving it often

Re: 67 Finally back on the road!
Old threads and old trucks have much in common once revived.

Re: 67 Finally back on the road!
Unfortunately that's about all it's been so far, aside from rebuilding the motor. It's been a driver all along, now that I'm getting a new truck, I can take the time to do the bodywork on the '67.

Re: 67 Finally back on the road!
I'm looking for another hood, I'd be quite happy to find a better hood in the green for now, eventually I will get around to the bodywork and repaint, same color.
