My Grandpa's 69 Chevy

just thought i'd share some pics of by grandpa's 69 chevy. he bought it new in 69. completly plain jane. i think its got the smallest spid sheet i've ever seen. trucks all original except paint, at some point in time it had a real real cheap dark blue paint job. the truck was originally baby blue. and the engine was changed by me back when i was still in high school, went from a 250 to a 292 6cyl. wish i had taken some before pics. but i've painted the front bumper black, put some different wheels on it, and some different lights. well any way here u go.

Good to see that it stayed in your family.

Re: My Grandpa's 69 Chevy

yeah im glad too. after my grandpa died my uncle asked if i wanted it and i said O YEAH. I have a pic of me at like 2 or 3 standing on the hood of it with my first fish i ever caught with my dad and grandpa. everytime the 3 of us went some where we either took that truck or my dads 68 chevy. (which i have now too) lots of good memories in those trucks they will never go anywhere. think thats why im so into these old trucks. i know have a 67 parts truck, my dads 68, my grandpas 69 (hope soon to make that my daily driver), and an old 72 chevy truck.

Re: My Grandpa's 69 Chevy

I have to agree that it's good it's still in your family. Your story is very similar to mine, except mines a GMC
