GMC all the way. That truck looks right with the white trim as well. I would paint the bumper white too.

Re: Thinking about a sex change!!!.....er sexty seven change

I'd keep it GMC, there is too much rust on the fenders/hood. The rest of the truck wouldn't match.

You could do just the grill, but I think I'd stay GMC.

I believe things should stay the way God created them.

Besides,if you change Sancho,he will be "just another '67 Chevy".

the lack of rust might look weird once you get to the doors and the cowl panel. If you could blend it some how.....i say change it

Re: Thinking about a sex change!!!.....er sexty seven change

I like the look of the Chevy front end much more than the GMC but still would not make a change.

All hail the C/10 King! He's got one or more of everything..

Switch to doggies on Sancho and let him be. Consensus says GMCs are rarer.

Instead of changing that one, you need more trucks!

Re: Thinking about a sex change!!!.....er sexty seven change

As a GMC guy,I`d have to say leave it be.There are far to many 67 Chevs out there,but an unmolested 67 GMC short bed is just too cool.
I`d say build a twin with the parts you have!

Well, I attempted to clean half the front today, and like Ackattack stated "it does not match patina/rust wise", plus 3 out of 5 members say leave it alone, so it looks like "Sancho" going to stay a
