I married the most amazing woman! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

slick copper · 03-05-2011, 07:03 AM

My wife bought me my dream truck! I've had it for a year now and work on it when I can. I just wanted to share my story! It's a 1967 LWB C/10 custom optioned big back window truck.

She suprised me with it one day, just told me we had to call in to work. Went to the local Pilot truck stop and waited. Before long in came this car hauler with only that truck sitting up top. I said "that's a nice '67"! I looked at her and she just grinned. I said "you bought me a truck!?"

She said "yep!" I was extatic! Couldn't get that stupid grin off my face!

It's a texas truck so no rust! Name: 165.jpg

Had the truck almost a year now! Thought it'd be a good one year anniversary mark to start this thread.

Actually the caps won't stay on, one of them is bent. Just put them on to make it look better. Going to be putting on a set of 10 hole rally's on I have (I think). Not 100% sure yet, might go chrome. Yeah, the factory trim would be nice but it's crazy expensive. Like 700 dollars, so not sure I'll be putting that on any time soon!

BTW do you know if those are factory 67 truck wheel covers?
