I Have A Complete Truck Again!!!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

67ChevyRedneck · 10-01-2006, 08:32 PM

Just thought I'd toss these up here before I update my "build thread." I HAVE A WHOLE TRUCK AGAIN.... ok, well almost. BUT IT RUNS AND DRIVES!!! WITH OVERDRIVE!!!! I finished putting the body back together this weekend and got a rebuilt trans with BO kits (not as easy as they say they are, but not difficult)! So what if I don't have the seat in it yet or it doesn't have tailaights? I CAN SEE THE LIGHT BABY! Sorry for the excitement, you couldn't slap the grin off my face today when I tested the trans out and she flew through all the gears. I still have it now! The truck hasn't seen 60 mph since 3rd and 4th blew out on me going from Clemson to Greenville back in Februrary 2004.

Since February, she has gone from the top pic to the rest below. Ignore the fugly front rims, I didn't have time to swap to the 6 lug rotors.

You haven't seen under the hood yet

Don't worry, I watched NASCAR today, what a finish, wasn't it? position #1 and #2 (steward and mears) BOTH run out of gas AND retain position! My boy finished 10th

Don't laugh.... ebay.... They are corvette style rims made by "unique" wheels, so they are cheapys, but the look good enough to me

I'm having enough trouble finishing mine

I won't be able to go back to Columbia to work on it for 3 more weeks

bazkook · 10-02-2006, 11:54 AM

It looks my like my soon to be restored 70 stepside. Same color. I was thinking about painting mine black but now that I see how good blue really looks I'm keeping it blue. Very nice truck!

boraxman · 10-02-2006, 12:07 PM

Looking great, except you got ahead of me on the assembly part.
