Ok so I have a question. I'm in Florida and we buy rust... Lol.
What does a truck like that go for? I always see guys building these really clean trucks be never see them for sale. Just curious on price of one of these unmolested trucks.

I paid $6700 for mine and it came from New Mexico

It still has a few rust spots but nothing compared to what I was looking at in PA

Sweet, looking forward to another beautiful build !

$10k won't buy what it use to with these original paint/rust free beauties.

Yup guys, same thing over here in Ca. these stock clean SWB are getting even harder and harder to find, and yes the prices have really sky-rocketed, especially on the slant noses!!!
BTW Keith, I love your work!!!! Totally awesome!

I paid $6250 for mine last year. It has some rust: half dollar size spot on passenger side of firewall, passenger front fender lower cup, and both outer rockers (one is rusted and one is crushed in), but I'm happy with what I paid. Being a step or a fleet make a good bit of difference too. Same guy I bought mine from sold a '70 step side late last year for around $7500 so the price is going up on the steppers too.

I'll be watching..................

BigCountryx · 02-24-2013, 03:17 PM

awesome build....

BMERDOC · 02-24-2013, 03:59 PM

Looking forward to Tiffany! Hazel is a big favorite of mine. I kinda cringe to see such a low mileage beauty cut up but I know its for the greater good.

LEX · 02-24-2013, 04:52 PM

This is going to be fun.

Chvy2NV · 02-24-2013, 05:19 PM

looks great Keith!! and your work is bar none.

will be following closely. I would love to see detailed pics when your start doing your fuel and brake lines.

aggie91 · 02-24-2013, 06:10 PM

Wow, it's only been about 18 hours from the first post and already on page 3. I can't wait to see this on this summer! You make me sick that you find all the nice trucks and then turn them into AMAZING trucks.

Great start on this one, Keith. I had a feeling it would not take you long to get back to another build!

n2billet · 02-24-2013, 10:41 PM

Got a few things done today...got the trans painted, pulled the front and rear glass out of the cab (going to paint the interior) installed the ball joints in the control arms and mounted on the frame, started putting the motor back together and now I'm waiting on gaskets.

**STP67-72** · 02-24-2013, 10:46 PM

Truck looks great buddy. You're moving quick as usual. It looks like it has a long way to go before CTC in October. BUT i know you will make it. Cant wait to drive the heck out of them again.

And i agree that original paint trucks have went outta site, but where else you going to get one.
