Nice 63 in a nice color! You should re-oil that paint with a generous helping of Meguiars #7! It would really come to life.

Really !! Finally something nice and original to look at. Thank you 5win . Whats the story on the 1963 ?

factorystock · 09-12-2018, 03:09 PM

Like others have said, WOW! This is exactly what this thread is about. Thanks for sharing 5Win and Dubmorgan. This goes to show the Lambrecht auction was not the only fish in the sea!

**The Rocknrod** · 09-12-2018, 05:08 PM

Is he running a LS in there?

**aerotruk63** · 09-13-2018, 10:25 AM

Is there a part number on the plastic?
Was it molded or simply folded over the radiused corners?
Is the plastic under the same clips as the vinyl?
Is ths plastic still supple?

oem4me · 09-13-2018, 10:39 AM

No cardboard tank cover in '63?

I will look for a part number and get you detailed pics, it is supple.

**aerotruk63** · 09-13-2018, 11:13 AM

My white 63 , ( St Louis ) from New Mexico has the cardboard, but I can't confirm it original. Has the posi traction decal on it.
My blue 63 ( Oakland ) had one.

Here is what is left of the seat padding on a 62 stepside.

rustbucket66 · 04-15-2019, 10:59 AM

Haven't been on this site in a while. My 66.

Nice addition.

**Steeveedee** · 09-17-2019, 12:18 AM

Just finished reading through this thread. What a bunch of treasure! I'd like a truck of this vintage, a long bed step side, but I'd take a fleet side.

Maybe before I die. Not in any hurry.

Thanks for posting the photos of the red C 60 oem4me. Those grain farmers really knew how to store 2 tons correctly, wonder how many of their pickups got the same treatment?

63-73stepside · 06-04-2020, 10:15 PM

not the most original , but i just found this 60 og paint and rust free
original seat cover and clean og dash , but for some strange reason no floor mat

**jocko** · 06-14-2020, 05:00 PM

yes, it could ALL be fixed, but one has to pay a premium price up front to get what "was" a very nice truck and then unscrew all the mistakes the seller made for additional $. If it were $6K, then yes, after a total $10K investment, one would have a very nice, re-original 65 C20. Now, at the asking price, you'd almost be at $17.5K to get it back to where it was before it got all messed up. That's what is frustrating. The seller would have made more profit if he'd never touched it at all.

Rubbertiredtramp · 06-14-2020, 06:18 PM

maybe they aren't splits could be just beauty rings, at any rate better than so called custom rims. I would think that if you were just trying to flip something it would be better just to clean it up and make it run good, you can't customize something for someone else, especially someone like me.

Any new additions lately? This thread has kinda dried up.
