Re: 1964 GMC 1500 "crustine" semi- build.
Scored a set of chrome valve covers for Crustine's Christmas present.
![]() Don't know what the heck the seller was thinking when he sent a bowtie breather with them. ![]()

She's getting dressed up for Christmas--cool. Have you ever seen a breather cap with GMC on it?

Those are NICE. I don't think I have ever seen chrome for the GMC V6 before.

Re: 1964 GMC 1500 "crustine" semi- build.
HAHA, No...Probably won't for awhile. Since I daily drive this truck the heating and cooling of the engine during the winter months creates a lot of moisture. These would probably rust in a heart beat. Probably will put them on for the shows during the spring, summer, and fall next year. I like the painted ones because I can do a quick wipe down with a towel and good to go. lol Thanks for checking in.

Re: 1964 GMC 1500 "crustine" semi- build.
Well driving Crustine 24/7 has been awesome. Gas mileage kinda sucks, but nothing beats having a good reliable old truck as your daily.
![]() So, got up early saturday and hammered it back in place and welded it all back up. The welds from the factory were pretty poor anyhow so I turned the heat up and really laid some welds on. Works like a charm and has never shifted smoother since I've owned her. ![]() Good ol simplicity! Only took about 1.5 hours.

Re: 1964 GMC 1500 "crustine" semi- build.
What's your mileage been? My POS with the mild 350 has been getting around 12 recently. Hoping the carb swap I did today will help...although I've also been driving kind of agressively and running 70+ pretty frequently with 4.10 gears and no OD...lol

Re: 1964 GMC 1500 "crustine" semi- build.
I get 10 in town, lotta stopping and going. When cruising I get around 12-13. I never push the v6 past 2400 rpm when cruising so I'm stuck around 53 mph. With an OD the mileage would be better.

Re: 1964 GMC 1500 "crustine" semi- build.
Hey guys! Well I haven't done a thing to Crustine accept drive her 7 days a week and keep things cleaned and maintained.
Little update though, a member here (Ryan Smith) had the original 305D from his 62 GMC sitting around and he asked me if I wanted it. Well, next thing I know he's here dropping it off. Complete motor that ran and was Free! Even delivered! ![]() Pictures, do have some plans for this engine. Thinking turbo in the future.

Re: 1964 GMC 1500 "crustine" semi- build.
haha Yeah, Crustine is a driver for now...after the 66 is done she may be in for a restore. Not sure what'll happen. Have tons of idears kickin around though.

Re: 1964 GMC 1500 "crustine" semi- build.
I know you're always on the look out for a bigger six, I saw this one for sale and thought of crustine, too bad it's all the way in Missouri!

Would love to get my hands on that puppy. Been sweet with a 4 barrel and duals. Man can dream I guess.

Re: 1964 GMC 1500 "crustine" semi- build.
Well now that summer is here and the weather is warm....Crustine was due for an oil change. Went with 20w-50 and Power Punch additive. That stuff works nicely.
Also had to have a bit of fun. Ol v6 still puts a smile on my face. 0-55 in 17 seconds. lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVS1W8Jdtw0
