Re: Post pics of your Longbed Trucks!! No short stuffs allowed!!

heres my long bed....shes a little rough but i plan on doing a few things....i plan on adding disk brakes, a 350/700r4 with a choppy cam and loud exhaust, air bags all the way around so it will sit flat on the ground....steel wheels with white walls and im going to attempt to respray the truck and give it a patina look. if the pass door didnt have the huge dent i would leave the body alone.







shes pretty solid....but she does have some rust...alot better than other 67-72 trucks ive found. the truck had 5 lug running gear but it all was swapped for the 6lug. so i plan on going back to 5 lug for sure

Thanks. I thought so too. I was glad to see it was unmolested with the exception of a set of headers and the rattle can paint. It was like a blank slate I couldn't let pass me by.

Screw them. At least you have a better chance of actually being able to use your truck as a truck by hauling something. You can also lay down in the back (or get busy with your girl), and actually fit

I don't know if its a different setup but I see you can reply are you using the quick reply or post reply button. For pictures use the post reply button then go to manage attachments in that menu. Pretty new here myself so if there is a different better way I don't know about it yet

Re: Post pics of your Longbed Trucks!! No short stuffs allowed!!

Unfortunately, I don't have digital pictures of many of my trucks, cars, tractors, etc. But, while digging around in the "archives", I did find a few pictures of some older vehicles. Since, this is all about longbeds, we'll start with these!

First, a '69 I found in town. Swapped out the original 396 for a 454 and put the truck in new paint. Sold the truck to a young girl and sold the 396 to one of those "numbers matching" folks. Everybody was happy!

Re: Post pics of your Longbed Trucks!! No short stuffs allowed!!

i haven't started a build thread yet... but this is mine. i got it last tuesday
it's a 1970 CST/10 - 350, edelbrock carb put on by PO, runs drives well, body work initally looked well done, but the body is pretty wrinkly the closer i got to it...

there was a fair amount of surface rust showing up, so i sanded it all off this weekend, and shot a coat of black primer on it, just to keep it from coming back.

found the wheels/tires on CL from a kid who had them on a suburban (99) and needed gas money. so i picked them up for less than the cost of 2 tires. i should be able to mount the rear wheels today, i had to order a spacer kit to keep them from rubbing against the bed.

this board has been a huge help so far. thanks for everything!

Re: Post pics of your Longbed Trucks!! No short stuffs allowed!!

Here's a pic of my '72, the day I got it. Am in the process of putting it back together, just to get it out of the garage to make room. Baby on the way. Will have to go back and do it right later.
