but anyways, yeah, it'll sit for a bit as I have a ton of house jobs to do. need to get a shed painted, shelves made, garage cleaned, house cleaned, find a crew to paint the house, etc... Also have some yard work that needs done. I have some pics from the camping event, but haven't a clue where the camera went. I'm sure i'll find it soon enough and get some good pics up. I have to say, i saw it while Matt was driving on the interstate (i was in the '69) and it looked real badass rolling down the road in it's black wheels and baby moons |

Well good luck quitting smoking, wishing you the best!
But, I'm also glad to hear the maiden voyage went off well. I can't wait to see it in Riverside!

Re: 1950 Chevy 3600 - Bumper Punchin'
thanks man. I appreciate the feedback.
heh, well the seat is actually nice. I got it from Leon out of a '48 is friend redid. but the rest of the interior is rusty metal. I have decided that the next "phase" for this truck is to get a nice interior going. Get all the wires and air lines cleaned up, get some dynomat down, carpet, door panels, etc. Now that the big stuff is done, i plan to take it a bit slower with the remaining items.

Holy crap Ivel, love your truck, I cant believe I missed this thread. Just finished going over the whole thread from the start. Talk about a thrash! Bet you enjoyed every minute of it tho.. You taking it to the Goodguys show in Des Moines over July 4th? We plan on heading that way & would love to check it out in person.

Re: 1950 Chevy 3600 - Bumper Punchin'
yep, it'll be at the goodguys show along with the '69. I'm planning to get there at the butt crack of dawn and getting the same spot i was at last year. figure if any other 67-72 guys wanted to park there, there'll be plenty of room. Look for me in front of the Pioneer Livestock Pavilion.
I should have some time between now and then to get some stuff cleaned up. The wires and air lines everywhere drive me nuts. |

Re: 1950 Chevy 3600 - Bumper Punchin'
I'd almost trade my CST10 for that right now... I am in LOVE of the look.
You did this truck damn perfect, mainly because I'm a sucker for black steel wheels with chrome centers... |

Re: 1950 Chevy 3600 - Bumper Punchin'
Almost! But, big block power and a killer suspension are intriguing.
But I've got a breath of fresh air with $ and a line on a donor truck... So you'd have to drive pretty fast Last edited by texanidiot25; 06-14-2009 at 11:15 PM. |
