looks great, Joe!...can't wait to see pics of it outside...i notice ya'll didn't do anything inside the bed...what's the plan for that?

jchav62 · 09-26-2011, 12:37 PM

Thanks!

She has a new Mar-K wood bed kit for it already with stainless strips and hardware. I need to find another set of wheel tubs. The plan is to re-paint the inside of the bed when it's all apart....

Hoser's Girl · 09-26-2011, 12:55 PM

I love it!!!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!! a million times thank you!!!

frmula505 · 09-26-2011, 03:14 PM

Looks good Joe. Have to check it out when I get back (in Tampico Mexico)

jchav62 · 09-26-2011, 03:17 PM

Hey Jose! Thanks! You're in Mexico? I hope they let you come back vato!

Just kidding. When you get back come check it out...

frmula505 · 09-26-2011, 03:27 PM

I'll be back next week, been here almost three weeks. Sucks I cant leave hotel cause of security problems. Just have to stay in room figuring what to buy (looking at a Viper)

65panelrat · 09-26-2011, 03:29 PM

Wow! Looks Sweeeet guys! Mr. Abraham is a true Artist! I wish I had been there this weekend to lend a hand. I can't wait to see it all put together.

Abe is the MAN! I think that's been said a few times in this build thread... We are honored to have one of his paint jobs in the fleet. Makes me want to have one of those 'car show' signs made that people prop up by there cars...

1965 Chevrolet C-10
Shortbed Fleetside
283/700r4
"Paint and Body: Abraham Flores, Moriarty, NM"

Sounds like a job for "D-Ray"...

Oh yeah, "Custom pinstriping: Danny "D-Ray" Apodaca, Santa Fe, NM

Thanks Hagery,

You've helped us plenty with this build! We appreciate it! The bed wood is next so be ready homes!

jchav62 · 09-26-2011, 05:02 PM

Can't forget Danny F (Abe's brother)... He helped dye the interior a couple Sundays ago... Seat and carpet. Thanks Dan!

bubba327 · 09-26-2011, 10:06 PM

Awesome work guys!!! I love the colors!!!!!!

jchav62 · 09-28-2011, 09:09 AM

Thanks! I can't wait to put the 'bling' on. Going back to Moriarty on Friday to do that...

jchav62 · 10-03-2011, 10:11 AM

Lisa, Abe and I ended up playing hookie from work last Thursday to go "assemble" the '65...

jchav62 · 10-03-2011, 10:13 AM

Mr. Danny 'purdied up' the emblems...

jchav62 · 10-03-2011, 10:14 AM

Happiness...

Strodder · 10-03-2011, 10:14 AM

I can't wait to get to the point your at. It's the most rewarding part of the build. Looken good.

jchav62 · 10-03-2011, 10:18 AM

Thanks! Pictures really don't do that color any justice. That golden pearl really lights up in the sun. Lisa did a great job picking the color... We love it... We put a lot of miles on the truck this weekend. Had a blast...

You're right Strodder... it was very rewarding...

Strodder · 10-03-2011, 10:19 AM

I like the color she chose also.

scotts62 · 10-03-2011, 10:44 AM

Looks nice!!!

likaroc13 · 10-03-2011, 12:07 PM

sucks that it's hard to see the pearl effect in pictures (can see it a little in the emblem pic), however it looks beautiful nonetheless!

jchav62 · 10-03-2011, 03:41 PM

Thanks guys!

She even let me drive it!

chad64chevy · 10-03-2011, 06:48 PM

S10Fan · 10-03-2011, 07:06 PM
