Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
I really like your style.
You do everything "right" when modifying these trucks,... in my opinion. Love it!

Glad you guys like the Ghost. I had to build something to keep myself busy while Gumby is still under the knife. I will post the Ebay link when it goes live. I just picked up an all original tan and brown paint and original interior 89 Suburban that I plan to use as a run around ride. Just have to get all the slam parts

Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
Well guys here it is. The Ghost is on ebay right now, and here is the link so you can check out the listing. Sad to see it go, chances are I won't find another one this nice again, but I guess thats how it goes...
http://www.ebay.com/itm/161161532534...84.m1555.l2649 I can't say enough good things about this truck, its just that good. Someone is going to get a killer truck!

Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
Love that light blue... its exactly how I would like my truck to look when done, but due to budget probably wont be able to do a color change.
Perfect color... Perfect stance... just perfect. Would save me a lot of trouble if I could just trade ya....lol... But now seriously, its awesome. Thanks for the inspiration.

Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
Thanks, it will be sad to let it go, but progress on Gumby will start kicking into high gear soon and I need to make space.

Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
Very cool builds you have going. I follow your Instagram but wanted to read through the thread for more details. Keep up the killer work and hope to see some shots of Gumby hitting the streets soon.

Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
Wow, its been a while, but Im back. There has been a lot going on so I will do my best to catch everyone up! Here goes. First off as some of you may know, the 71 C10, The Ghost, sold to Bucks68 here on the forum. I have to say I miss it a bunch already.
Here it is leaving for Florida. He started a build thread on the truck which he calls Shiro so take a look and follow along. Looks like he is making some big changes. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=608085 Its going to be fun to see where this one goes. Now on to Gumby...

Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
And here we go with Gumby. Since the last time I updated, Gumby has move forward by leaps and bounds. The bed it on, the floor is raised, and the accuair is all wired up now.
Its looking like a truck again. Very happy with the outcome so far.

Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
Yeh no doubt, Dels the man! The front fenders are on now along with the front group and its looking killer! Steering is all hooked up and motors dialed.
Its looking like a truck again. Very exciting. What do you guys think?

Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
Makes my heart skip beats. You guys are fortunate to live were you can get to Delmo. Are you going to run Delmo Specials? The truck next to Gumby looks like a twin.
