Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks

Thanks, I certainly will check them out. I've had the truck for 6 years but just recently found this forum, its got loads of great pics and lots of info that would have been a great help when i was building it.

The paint is Hot Rodz Flat "Daytona Blue" its a low gloss paint. Not really liking it as much as I thought I would, its a little more shiney than i hoped for but its just dull enough to not show off the flake in it.

I saw a different picture posted earlier and that is the nicest looking custom console I've ever seen in one of these trucks. It looks like an OEM GM accessory. I'm curious, are your rear fenders widened? Also, do you know what the seat is out of? It seems to be a perfect fit and looks really comfortable.

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks

Thanks, yea i feel like i'm flooding the site with pics cause i'm new. The console was built by a buddy of mine who builds fiberglass speaker boxes, I had him build it so I wouldn't have to cut the factory dash. If you look against the firewall in the other pic you can see the acess door for my fuse panel. He also built the trim pieces for the seat, they house 6X9's that are facing forward. The seat itself came from a mid 90's chevy truck, I had it recovered with black vynal and red stitches and wanted it to feel modern but have an old style look to it. Its a very strange seat, it's a 60/40 but the driver side is the 60 part. I can't believe someone actually noticed the rear fenders! Yes, they are 3" wider than stock, they are fiberglass and they came from classic chevy parts. If you can see the step it is smooth and thats the only thing that really gives it away. I went with them so I could tuck the 15X10 rear rims inside the fender just incase i ever decide to run bags.

In fact you may get chastised... jokingly of course... if you don't post enough pictures.

You should start a thread of your own, so all your pictures can be in one place for us all to admire. Welcome to the forum!!

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks

Is that thing chopped and channeled? I wonder if he has bags or is that a static drop and what size wheals and tires do you think he is running? I have never liked the convertible look on these truck but I think this one works.
