Factory 66 4x4 Toy

Evening Gents,

It’s been awhile since I have posted anything here on 67-72 Chevy/ GMC trucks. The last time was a 72 GMC rebuild back in 2012.

Well, I have picked up a 1966 factory 4x4 that needs some love…lol. A gentleman had it for sale about two mile from me and it followed me home. Something rare here for GA is it came with a clear title. The current plan is to do a body off on it.

One of the previous owners has coated the entire truck with bed liner….great. It will be interesting to see what is in store for the metal underneath the liner. I am keep my figure crossedmit will be useable, but have my doubts.

Humm, for some reason some of the picture have posted sideways…lol

Re: Factory 66 4x4 Toy

Getter-done,

Thank you for cropping and rotating the pictures. I have been using citistrip covered with plastic wrap, along with razor blades and elbow grease to remove the bed liner. Let’s just say the bead liner is coming off rather easily. But, there is rust under the liner and some not so good body work. At the body work locations it wasn’t sealed and heavy rust. Will post pictures in just a bit. There is quite a bit of body filler too and have been removing that with a hot air gun and razor blade.

Re: Factory 66 4x4 Toy

That is exactly the truck I was looking for when I started looking for a project ended up with a 72jimmy
Nice work so far

My favorite body style of all the Chevy trucks
Good luck with your project
