Here is my 63 GMC Custom. I have had it for 4 yrs. working on her in my spare time (not much time lately). It will be a spare truck. Nothing crazy, just something to jump in and drive whenever I want.

Cool GMC. Want me to come over and get the '55 out of the way for you so you can park it in the garage??

I just went through this thread and saw the pic posted of my truck is a little out-dated...

Here's a more up to date pic of the '62...

jchav62,

Are those "Cateye" chrome round headlight covers or stainless?
I want a pair stainless. The half moons i have now are stainless
I have been looking online:

Although I found some half moons with the chevy logo on them.

Here's a link to a thread I did awhile back of scanned pics of my truck throughout the years... Flashbacks...

I'll post some of my 63 as soon as i figure out how to! LoL!

Here's my 63 Sub, the last year of the panoramic windshild. Mine is a bit "different" from all the others posted, in that it's not of the pickup variety, and that it's no Chevy. It is all GMC through-and-through.

I posted to Stovebolt about it back in 2003, and after a color change from the Palomino tan (adobe pink) to the medium dove-gray and countless hours of shop and restoration time, this is the end result.

This one was really fun for me in restoring back to better-than-new.
There's a slideshow here of many more pics taken during the resto process;

Let's see some more, you spolied brat!

I'm kidding, I'm kidding!

But seriously, any chance of showing us the engine? Bedwood? Interior? That's a REAL nice truck.

You'll probably do what most of us did that had something nice at an early age - sell it. Then spend the rest of your life regretting it. Mine was my dad's bought-new '55 Chevy two door hardtop Belair in black. Man, it STILL kills me and I'm an old dude now.

jchav62 · 11-04-2010, 06:21 PM

17? Congrats!! Take care of her...she'll take care of you...

Awesome truck!!

63redsled · 11-04-2010, 06:44 PM

thanks! will do.
