Bought another Project (67) - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

JRB · 04-12-2006, 10:45 AM

I got a bone stock 1967 Chevy PU with a 327 Four Barrel, Th400 Tranny and not sure what is in the Differential yet. Everything is there. The Truck was owned by an old granny (Didn't have a Led Foot). Just a little rust in the drivers rocker. It is a long bed but I am going to make it a short bed. I cant believe how unmolested this truck is. No holes in the dashboard, everything is there even the moldings. I got the truck for $600. My wife doesn't know it yet so I am in deep sh__!!!! Oh well you got do what you got to do!!!!
I will post some pictures of it when I get it home. That is if I am still alive.

Must be the only granny that had West Coast mirrors on her truck. Looks like an excellent buy for $600.

BTW, how are you on terms with the Misses???

JRB · 04-12-2006, 03:49 PM

Haven't told her yet so if you here a loud screem from over there in Maine you will know what happened.

Throw a mattress in the back and your good to go. I did the same thing with a basket case '67 GTO. She was Pissed so she went and bought a $2000.00 Electrolux Vacumn cleaner. That thing worked great sweeping out that car, and I'm still married to her.

67ChevyRedneck · 04-12-2006, 04:04 PM

Wow, a 67 CST with a 327.... nice find!

*wolfthing2000* · 04-12-2006, 04:34 PM

How could ya possibly buy THAT without gettin the OK from wife!!!

JRB · 04-12-2006, 04:42 PM

Well I have convinced myself that the $1000 dollar mark is the (Tell the wife marker). I have myself convinced of that but if I could get my wife to buy into it and she would think she came up with that idea then I would be in good shape!!!! Still Hopein

davidh · 04-12-2006, 04:51 PM

that's a good deal. I gave $300. for one optioned like that but it doesn't run and body isn't as nice. It does have AC and the speed warning. Glass was broken out.
Any trucks like that, running or close to it under a grand are a deal in my book. If you weren't so far away I'd take the long bed.

JRB · 04-14-2006, 02:49 PM

Bishops Trucks,
Thanks for the show of support for the momentary laps of sence. I think women expect us to screw up every now and then just so they will have something to yell at us about. If it wasnt for the Short Step 69, shortwide 64, shortwide 63, short step 56 bigwindow and now longbed 67 she might have more of a sence of humor about the whole thing.

Wanna trade front clips?

That's a great addition to your collection. Can't wait to help you shorten it!

scotto0609 · 04-14-2006, 05:10 PM

Tell her you payed half that and by the time your finished parting it it will more than pay for itself! Then add *****!!!!!! THen run like hell!!!!!! By the time she catches you she will have forgotten all about the truck!!!!

JRB · 04-14-2006, 09:27 PM

Scotto0609,
I appreciate the help but my wife is an accountant and she also is an agent for the IRS so I try to keep her on my good side when I can.

Thanks for the thumbs up and when I get the new shop completed I will definitly call on you to help make sure I get the frame back together in one piece and stait.
Thanks,
JRB
