Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
That front end is off a Mazda B-Series truck, based on the Ford Ranger.
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mazda...edirected=true Had to be a Ricer to do that to that. Just aint right! Putting import body parts on a Chevy! They need prayer! They need to have the truck taken away from them! Put on this forum for auction! What are we going to see next! Someone with a Honda V6 in their truck! I gotta go sit down and drink some coffee.... Tearing me slap up! Posted via Mobile Device

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
1Bad, that's an unfair statement for the international guys who keep their rides rolling with whatever they can. I give them credit to pursue the hobby whichever way they can. Heck not everyone accepts the Side Rails on my truck and they belong there.

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
Yea... Your right Bud.
Everybody has their own taste and opinions.. I'll give myself a time out on that one. Must be the medication... Had surgery Monday and been here trying to recover at home. Having troubles sleeping. Sorry fellas... Got a buddy at work that's from Romania and he can figure out why I like old cars and trucks! Posted via Mobile Device

Sure, always blame the drugs, sorry medications. LOL Sorry to hear your having troubles sleeping, watch the weather channel, that'll do it. I bet if you go and lay down in your truck you'll fall asleep.

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
Welcome to the forum. I imagine an American truck this old, and in such nice condition is pretty rare in your neighborhood, or is there a local club with lots of early iron? What are you planning for winter updates? Also what type engine/transmission are you running.

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
Hagelin,
Are these Truck any different in apperance or mechanically other than the steering? I know the climate is a little different in Europe. My dads 1969 AMC Rambler American was built in Canada and had extra undercoating under it. I bet parts are hard to find there. Thanks, Posted via Mobile Device

So I guess these truck were just shipped there. Cool. Didn't know the history about that. Were any of these trucks converted over? I seen a fella on here with a right hand steering. Can't remember where he was from though. Posted via Mobile Device

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
yeah the front fenders are black primer as well not sure why that would be like that but my brothjer has a similar truck and his is also black primer as well on the front end only. This must have been the way they did things back then.

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks
Purchased a month ago. 327 with 4 on the floor. BTW its a 64' C20 longbed, so I picked up suspension parts from a 73 c10, including upper and lower control arms, 5 lug discs, spindles, proportion valve and master cylinder. I'm assuming I need the cross member also to make it all work. Now in need of a new rear end and get ride of this crazy 4.something gear ratio.
