How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks - Page 26 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

hyperguy1979 · 07-26-2009, 08:23 AM

Why, they didn't all come with arm rest and radio's? I want to keep the radio but I found a awesome company that makes vintage radio's with digital displays and all the features you need for 10 disc cd changer, Ipod hook up and USB. But it's all hidden. And the radio looks original. here's the website for them. http://www.casmfg.com/ Also here is a website to all kinds of accessories for the 64 http://www.autoanything.com/truck/ch...2700A1964.aspx

Old trucks always look cool with a motorcycle in the bed. Especially good looking truck with a Vintage looking Triumph.

Hi, new to the forum, been looking around, great site and great looking trucks, here is my 64 stepside 283 3speed converted to floor, been restoring it, I just finished painting it and im trying to decide about rims and tires for it. I need to take some better pics, these were taken with my iphone.

joe231 · 07-29-2009, 04:45 PM

Its Firemist Red Metallic from tcpglobal, I took the pics with my iphone camera so its actually darker and more red than those pics show, with red metallic you basically have to be right up on it to see the metallic!

Wrecker55 · 07-29-2009, 07:37 PM

My 64 when it was Pro-street

jgh64pkup · 07-29-2009, 08:39 PM

too bad it caught on fire

markeb01 · 07-29-2009, 11:01 PM

Here's our 60 GMC. 350 with a Super T10 4 speed, 4.09 Dana 44 rear. 1975 front suspension, power steering and front discs. 5 spoke Americans and black lacquer paint I sprayed 10 years ago. The paint is a lot more beat up than it shows in the pics. I'm respraying in Blitz Black in the near future.

I always wanted diamond tufted upholstery so I gave it a shot on all the interior panels. The seats remain to be done.

The 350 is dressed up to look like a 327 with a hidden smog connection on the rear of the passenger valve cover.

Mark,

Long time no type, how you been? I hope all is well with you and the family. You still live in that beautiful area of Oregon? You remember those pictures you send me WAY back in 2000 when I first got my GMC. I'm sorry to say they went with the flood.

Your truck is looking REAL sharp, as usual.

I'm so close to having a real truck I can see the finish line!

For those who don't know Mark was the very first GMC trucker I'd met way back when I fiirst got into the truck hobby. He helped me many times and send some pictures of his ride that kept me going for a few years.

Awesome pic, Wrecker...

NtheFamily · 07-30-2009, 09:17 AM

Just a few of my 65 that has been NtheFamily since new. Uncle bought it new, dad bought from him, dad gave it to me. Dad and I rebuilt. Took several years to do since doing it all ourselves on nights and weekends.
Built a 327, now in process of starting a 383 stroker for it. Looks better in pics than it really is.

markeb01 that interior is sick man

markeb01 · 07-30-2009, 08:58 PM

Thanks. Diamond tufting was the top of the food chain (above pleat and roll) in the late 50's early 60's but only the high dollar guys could afford it. Many of the hot rods and gassers in the mid-late sixties had full diamond tuft interiors, or tufted door panels with diamond sewn seats, and the later versions had smaller diamonds with more buttons (which I was after).

There was a 1950 Olds coupe in high school with tufted seats that everyone lusted after, even though one of the button caps was missing. It's a tremendous amount of work but doesn't require a sewing machine making it ideal for a home project. Eventually I'll finish the seats to match.
