Re: Post Your 60-63 Body Style Chevy/GMC Trucks
Here's some pics of my new Money Pit! when I first bought it in Feb 2010, it's a 1962 Step Side with a 235 hooked up to a Powerglide. The truck is in pretty good shape (new paint) just needs some upgrades. So far I've installed a new chrome '64 Grill, New Chrome Bumpers, some emblems, new interior stuff like a firewall pad, Rubber Mat,knobs and such... trying to keep it as Original as possible in the looks department. Will post new pictures soon after I get my new TAs & Rallys mounted. Working on putting a Power Disc Brake Conversion right now, LOWER BALL JOINTS ARE A *****!! Anyway still a work in progress.

Re: Post Your 60-63 Body Style Chevy/GMC Trucks
Welcome from Washington state, what a great looking truck. Very clean and straight. Should you decide to upgrade the front suspension here's a thread that covers both the front end and the various brake options:
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=367260 The previous owner must have invested a lot of money and effort. Looking forward to seeing the new pictures with all the upgrades.

Re: Post Your 60-63 Body Style Chevy/GMC Trucks
Ya, I'm in the process right now, putting on 12" disc brakes with power booster, just waiting for 3/4"-20 die to chase out the treads on my Ball Joint, that I messed up pulling the old spindle. Hope to work on it this weekend! Thanks for the link, I'll check out how to DO IT THE RIGHT WAY

Now it's worth putting on here since it's starting to once again resemble one of these trucks.

Twiggy Any truck in any condition should make the picture thread, we learn so much from these pictures, like how nice it looks with that color you sprayed on.
