Thank you michael bustamante, what you mention is true, my truck doesn't have the proper dash cluster installed, but I have the original one, you can see it in one of the pics, but the plastic is broken, I will try to repair it. It comes in a grey color with texture, and from some photos I've seen the glovebox is matching color with the cluster, hope to have it the right way soon!

Very nice trucks.

a 67 chevy clust is actually the same fi you could just paint it back to the grey youre looking for. i think its "fawn" i have a 67 chevy g box door too if you need it. just pm me
a 68 is actually a lil different
both are 1 year only

cralon · 09-15-2015, 12:02 PM

Some pics of the process.

cralon · 09-15-2015, 12:13 PM

Other pics. I was lucky enough to find the original color in the backside of the cabin, it was the Light Green 503

The frame

Oh man! Just when I decided to paint my interior the same color as the exterior I see this. My truck was originally a fawn interior and that sure does look nice on your truck. You did a great job and have a nice truck. Congratulations.

YE9Longhorn30 · 12-24-2015, 12:39 AM

Pretty jealous I must say

Looks like you are doing quite a nice job. Hope mine will look like that too someday soon

cralon · 03-05-2016, 12:38 PM

Some advances: restored grille and bumper, carpet and seatbelts, interior.

chewychevy67 · 03-05-2016, 03:22 PM

That is looking good. Nice and clean!

cralon · 03-12-2016, 03:37 PM

The good old 305 V6 starting to look nice and clean again!

**Bob B.** · 03-12-2016, 04:03 PM

Very nice!

cralon · 05-13-2016, 09:24 PM

Finally found a set of 1967 hubcaps! Very nice chromed, they perfectly fit into my 16' wheels with bumps! Just some black paint in the letters and semi-circles and done!

C/10 King · 05-13-2016, 09:37 PM

Very nice!!!!! I used to own one a few years ago.

cralon · 05-13-2016, 09:39 PM

I tried with wheels matching body color, Light Green 503. I put a set of 245/75R16 tires, they closely match in height and profile the 750-16's I had, but they are obviously wider... see how they look...

Some problems with my carburetor, but now is up and running, I think eventually will need major repair.

cralon · 10-20-2016, 09:37 PM

Although a little tricky acceleration at low speed because of the carb, generally is running great. Sharing some pics of my old truck with you guys!
