Re: New Project! 67 Extended cab...

Some updated pictures of the cab. Trying to get the body work done and get it in primer. All the tires were flattened to make the top of the cab easier to work on.

They say it is cheaper to keep them than to trade them in, never know what the next one is like. I did upgrade once and it cost some money but was worth it. My wife lets me play with my toys and does not complain too much as long as she has a spot in the driveway. She has not parked in the garage for at least 10 years.

Re: New Project! 67 Extended cab...

One more picture from the front of the truck. I am still trying to figure out a color for the truck, nothing too dark of course. I was thinking maybe a light blue, red or yellow. Maybe even a light green color. Choices are tough sometimes.

Well, I also have a 1957 Cameo with the Napco conversion, a 69 Chevy extended cab short bed, a 72 Corvette and a 38 Chrysler Sedan. That is not including my daily drivers.

It is a long bed frame that has been lengthened and the bed cut down in front of the wheels.

Re: New Project! 67 Extended cab...

I got the under the bed all cleaned up and painted, painted the rear of the frame and installed the bed again on the truck. Love the nice days to get some work done.

I tried out some 20's on the truck, they looked good just have to get the rear a lot lower.

Re: New Project! 67 Extended cab...

Wheels look great, agreed on the rear drop as well. Is the pass seat going to flip up to let the pass in and out of the back like a blazer or did I miss that

Re: New Project! 67 Extended cab...

Did you decide on a color? I think that Yellow would look good on here. Maybe someone can photoshop this color on here and give you an idea?
