Luv that color, nice seat too; pleats look really good!

VA72C10 · 12-03-2011, 11:12 PM

Looking great! although I'd love more than a few spy shots (regular updates would be awesome)

darkhorse970 · 12-04-2011, 06:01 AM

Looks like this will be a very nice truck. Quick progress too, keep the updates coming.

72BlckButy · 12-04-2011, 11:49 AM

One of the main reasons I wish I could have tagged along yesterday Keith... the '68 is looking good!

Did he have his nephew do the upholestry? Or is it a kit?

More like $2500... minimum. The fact that there was 99.9999999...% rust free sheetmetal makes this thing priceless IMO.

Totally agree, but the people that said he would be lucky to $1000 out of it are way wrong.

A guy in Texas did the seat.

I agree that cab is worth atleast $2500 rust free, I had to replace cab supports, inner and outer rockers, cab corners, parts of the floors and rear window channel. I would have killed to have a rust free unmolested cab. Love the color as well, can't wait to see how this one turns out.

Hey Jeff,... this thread will be moved to the 67-72 Projects and Builds area!

**CC69Rat** · 12-05-2011, 12:00 PM

Is that code 503, or 518? I am seriously considering it for mine too .. prob the lighter 503 with a white top and white grille section. Wasn't the original white called linen white? sort of a vanilla color, not true bright white?

The 2004-5 Corvettes (I think) has a color called Speedway white that I am considering for the top / grille.

Bennett68C10 · 12-05-2011, 01:39 PM

Looks like 503 to me, really nice color.

n2billet · 12-05-2011, 05:52 PM

So Jeff, will this be at Kansas this year?

The wheel is actually a '70 Chevelle 3-spoke cushion grip reproduction.
These wheels were also found on 68-73(?) corvettes.
Also in colors,... on the late 60's buick skylarks.
You need to use the 67-68 camaro hub so it will match the diameter of the 67-72 truck steering columns.

If you use the '69-up hub,... it will be larger in diameter, than the truck steering column.
(in 1969 the chevrolet cars went to the ignition switch on the steering column)
