Finally pulled the trigger on a truck.

Bought a 1967 GMC stepside yesterday.

Has a 400 small block turbo 400 trans. Lowered about 3 inches. 91 box.

I saw that truck on kijiji as my favorite search is 67 gmc. Looks nice. Was it in Regina or Saskatoon?

Small world! It was in Saskatoon, I'm in Regina.

Nice buy. I like the color. What are your plans for it?

Its in pretty good shape thankfully. Needs some TLC and some maintenance. It has no stereo so that will be my first project. The gas tank is the bed but I want to replace it with a under bed Boyd's tank.

Can't do too much right now. I just spent all my cash buying it!

**chewychevy67** · 11-19-2016, 11:47 AM

Lol. If your up the saskatoon way any time with it give a shout to us saskatoon ppl. Would like to see it

**Already Gone** · 11-19-2016, 01:43 PM

I'm surprised I never saw your truck around town.

**chewychevy67** · 11-19-2016, 02:31 PM

That's what I thought and why I asked if it was in regina or to on town. I have never seen it in person. Maby someday. ...

Hey, is it ok if a someone south of the border participates in this Canadian thread? Nice '67. Take your time (as if you had a choice). Good things happen to those who wait. I do a lot of it. Still waiting for the good things, too

The guy I bought it off of was in Saskatoon. But he only had it a year and never drove it. He put 100 Km on in a year. The truck was restored in 2005 in Lloydminster.

ARCTICFRONTIER · 11-19-2016, 05:28 PM

Home in the garage with a new very happy owner!

Thats probably why us truck nuts never saw it around town as it was hibernating of the year.

For sure! I don't plan on driving it until spring so I have some time to get it in shape for summer cruising

Nice score on the truck, money well spent. Sure looks clean in and out. I get to your area a lot and every cruise weekend in August since the start many years ago, never saw that truck ever, glad it worked out for you. Start saving for more cool additions.

I have a few updates going on my truck. It’s getting a FAST EFI, Tremec 5 speed, headers, full exhaust, Flaming River steering column, CPP full suspension kit 4/6 drop, CPP full disk brake kit, Dakota Digital VHX gauges and dual electric fans.

Another member on this board is doing the work. James ( aka Nuke1 ) and his guys at Full Throttle Concepts are doing a great job.

**clay68c10** · 04-28-2018, 10:41 AM

Nice!
Did you convert the TKO to mid-shift?

**dagnabbitt** · 04-28-2018, 10:45 AM

I was eyeballing this truck when it was on kijiji last year, I'm glad it went to someone who has great plans for it.

How about the box? Keeping the '88 one that's on it or going with an original? Is the SPID still there?

The kit we bought came set up in the mid location. We got it from Silver Sport Transmissions

I bought it fall of 2016 and have driven it from the driveway to the garage. It’s killing me now that’s is getting close to being done.

For now it’s staying with the modern bed. Eventually I want to swap it out but I’m way over budget as it is.

I’ve never looked to see if the SPID is there!

**special-K** · 04-28-2018, 09:23 PM

Mr Terminology Corrector here

. You do know the GMCs were called Fenersides, right. Chevys were Stepsides. Now for the correction of corrections... the last Stepside/Fenderside was made in '87. After that, starting in '88, there were these stylized versions which were called Sportsides. Well, I guess I'm out of corrections now, so my work is done here. So what color, I mean colour is it?

Thanks for correcting me. That’s how I learn.
