I was just wondering that myself. Notice the slammed white '69 & up in there too. (I know it is 69 or newer becouse of the cargo light)

Very nice including tow hooks on 2 wheel drive. I want that 70 inner grill, can we still but those 70 inner grills with silver horizontal bars?

Longhorn Man · 05-04-2002, 11:20 PM

BUXMAN66, those marker lights were standard on all 68 to 72. Be it reflectors, or actual lights, they all looked like that onless CST/Cheyene or bright marker lights was optioned.

72chevyLWB · 05-04-2002, 11:22 PM

Did you notice the Toyota banner was removed for the second pic, or no it would have been the original pic so he put it up later. HMMMM he covered up the tailgate trim with it

Thanks guys for the comments.

(1) the red truck is actually a 1971 chevy shortbed 4x4 (K10). it has a 1970 grill cause i like them better.
(2) I'm always changing my garage around.. the toyota motorsports banner was from the recent Grand Prix of longbeach.
(3) the white truck is actually a 1968 swb chevy. I had posted pics of that a while back. I am currently doing a lot of things to the white truck.. so if longhorn will help maybe we can post pics of the new changes in about a month or so.

Thanks again. Tom

Longhorn Man · 05-04-2002, 11:50 PM

bummer, the cargo isn't original. You got me BUXMAN66, I guess you owe me a punch in the gut. (if you bet for cash they say you have a problem)

Longhorn.

Actually buxman.. is wrong also.(LOL so nobody gets hit). You cant really tell in the picture but the markers on the 1968 are the flush ones from a 1987 van. (i like the low profile look and they are tons brighter with the lights on).

Longhorn Man · 05-04-2002, 11:58 PM

Phew...I wasn't lookin forward to another pummiling!
Both your rigs look nice, and don't hesitate to ask me to post stuff.

woo hoo i was right 4x4!! yay!! hehe. mine the same way, 71 with 70 grill, but i like 71 grill better

*Gee_Emm* · 05-05-2002, 09:07 AM

You can no longer get a 70 inner grill new, even if you order one from GM they will give you a 69, which I think is stupid, why cant they make both? Oh well maybe some day, yah that 70 grill on that truck is really nice. Don't see too many looking like that.

Really nice pair of trucks!
I would have bet '69-up on the white truck, too. In the pic with the hood up, it doesn't look slanted enough to be a '68.

To answer the question about the wheel.
The steering wheel is a budnik stilleto.

Thanks for all the nice comments
