That looks great! what a truck.

casey · 05-01-2003, 09:20 PM

beautiful job you did, thumbs up

Josh292 · 05-01-2003, 09:48 PM

Sweet truck! were did you get that hood? Is it custom made?

Bad@$$67Chevy#1 · 05-01-2003, 10:16 PM

Man, I'll bet you can do one BBBAAADDD burnout in that thing. Just a few suggestion though, Add a few more exhausts, re-locate the tailgate opener into the inside of the bed, put a bed cover on it, and shave the bed. It would look so cool. Just a few thoughts. You can to the stuff with LMC magazine. lmc.com is the website. Awesome truck, truely. Love the hood! Good job man!

c-tenkid · 05-01-2003, 10:24 PM

Very very nice truck.I love it.Perfect combo of everything!

GREAT JOB BILL!!! You have been working your a$$ off on this truck to get it done as fast as you have and the combination of parts you choose (wheels,bed,color,suspension etc.) made it a truly one of a kind truck that can be driven and enjoyed for years to come. I think i'm as proud as you are. Again GREAT JOB!!!

Chevy409 · 05-03-2003, 05:23 PM

Two thumbs up, very nice and different. Love the hood too

72ChevyCheyenne · 05-05-2003, 11:38 AM

Thanks for all your comments and suggestions. Now I will try and answer everyone's questions. Sorry it took this long to get back to all of you but I was in Pigeon Forge over the weekend.

The hood came from TechHoods which is a division of US Body. It is fiberglass and not steel. As far as the fit, it is pretty good. It needed some shaving on the sides so it didn't rub the inside of the fender.

I have attached a pic of the engine also.

kickboxr3 · 05-07-2003, 08:31 PM

Man thats one sweeet ride, I like the late model bed. Ive been thinking of doing that to my '71, is it easy as remove and replace?

miket · 05-07-2003, 09:09 PM

Truck looks great....how does your 502 run?

72ChevyCheyenne · 05-07-2003, 10:09 PM

miket - The 502 rocks. It is smooth enough for the street but very strong when you mash the gas.

miket · 05-07-2003, 11:08 PM

How does it idle? did you get the ZZ motor with the roller cam?

Ncbosshoss00 · 05-08-2003, 12:21 AM

Looks great.

72ChevyCheyenne · 05-08-2003, 06:30 AM

At idle it does have a little bit of a lope to it. It is the roller cam ZZ.
