first cruise of the season - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Mountain Man · 03-22-2003, 11:02 PM

Well, after redoing my interior paint, installing an aluminum tranny pan, motor pan, rewiring the rear tail lights, and changing fluids and filters..... I took my baby for its first cruise of the spring.

Feels good to drive the 67 again. Seemed like forever before the snow disappeared this year. The winter kept me busy with all of the above projects. Now , it is ready to drive. Finally after 2 years of ripping and rebuilding, I am going to drive my truck every chance I get.

this is the only pic I have on file. Took it 2 weeks ago. Interior was burgandy, now it is silver to match the exterior. Tough job, but worth it. I should have taken some pics of the truck, while it was out in the sun today. I will take some next time.

Like the Silver...............

Did you make the Aluminum floor pan?

What type of seat did you put in?

Mountain Man · 03-23-2003, 04:33 PM

Blue Beard - The seat is an original factory 67/68 bucket with fold down center console seat.
Had the seats reupholstered last summer
