Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy

Man you have gotten a lot done recently. The rims and tires look perfect. I am kinda jealous. I have heard the weather back home has been really nice.

Thanks. Yes it has been very nice here lately. Upper 70's and low 80's it doesn't get much better than that.

Sprayed some primer today. The temperature is nice and it laid down real smooth.

Thanks. It seems like a very long time ago. But I think it will be worth the wait. I am soooo ready to take a road trip in it. Lol

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy

I didn't fix all the dings on the bottom of the bed that goes behind the cab but other than that it turned out pretty good. I plan on putting a box against the cab to put luggage in so it will not show.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy

Thanks TJ.
I pulled the truck out of the shop so I could paint some of the bed. Here it is just waiting patiently for the bed to get finished. Lol

Yes it was nice to meet you also. We will have to get together sometime and look at your truck. I have a friend in pocahontas that is working on a 1982 c10 and I get up that way often.

Oh no way, that's cool. Pm me his name, I may know him. There isn't too much car culture here anymore. It's kinda sad. Anytime you head this way message me, I always like to talk trucks.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy

Here are a few pics I took. What is the engine in the truck with the triple carb setup? It has a distributor in the back at an angle.
