67 SWB Stepside - Old School Style

[Joecool_iowa]

I've owned this 67 for about 10 years. I bought it with the best of intentions but after putting a new tranny in, it sat for the next 9 years or so. When I bought it, it had black primer on it. As you can tell from the before pics, the sun, rain, snow, etc. did a number on it. This build (my first) started as a sand and shoot project, just to get some paint on it and go for a rat rod type of look. The further I got into it, the more dents and rust I found. There was just too much truck left there to rat it out completely, but in my opinion, not enough to go for show...so, it's a hybrid! (Before I get a ton of messages on the marker lights, I realize they didn't exist in 67. The cab has the small rear window and is definitely a 67, as for the rest, I really don't know, but that's the beauty of it I guess. I'll post some pics as I go (pretty far along already, but once those pics are up, I'll update as I progress). Any feedback is welcome!
