That is a very nice truck, thank you for keeping it stock.

Beautiful...............droooooool

prostreetC-10 · 08-23-2010, 06:07 PM

I'm not impressed! There's a big scratch on the pass door. Wait....that's my computer screen.

I'm not a big fan of bone stock but that is flat classy!!! Bet you can't spin them rears huh?

It's kinda like those Barrett/Jackson cars when they says it's actually better/nicer than new. Well done but nobody likes a showoff!

72shortstep · 08-23-2010, 06:19 PM

Looking awesome, love the truck but would not want to mow that grass!

kcfirstbuild · 07-05-2011, 07:53 PM

Just wondering the size, brand, and where you got your tires ?

**MusicMan70** · 07-05-2011, 08:08 PM

Ok, I can read between the lines, yes I'll trade you...Now stop teasing.
Just a beautiful peice of truck history Josh!

C/10 King · 07-05-2011, 08:20 PM

Wow! I've never seen that one before, I like!!!

67anthony · 07-05-2011, 09:04 PM

Man that a nice one .

**yote1234** · 06-27-2013, 06:49 PM

more, more, more , more

**TBONE1964** · 06-27-2013, 09:23 PM

Very nice. It takes a lot of effort and time to get them back this way.

dakattack7 · 06-27-2013, 09:34 PM

PERFECT! Well, I give it a 99.99999/100, the only thing that would make it better is 503 light green, but this is the next best color!

slammed1 · 06-27-2013, 09:55 PM

Great truck to have and it looks great too. If I had that truck I would have 5 or 6 sets of different wheels and tires to be ableto change the look up in just a few minutes.

Being that I like to learn more and more info on these trucks I would like to know what is the difference that was noticeable between a 69 and 71 bed??

That is a beautiful truck! Love the stock look!

I pulled a complete cruise set-up off a 1970. I marked and measured everything to add onto this truck, drilling holes for servo and hose clamps. I had the servo mounted on firewall and as I was bolting parts to the motor I had a blond moment! Duh, the cruise came out of a small block truck and the distributor caps hits the servo in a BB truck! Notice the engage button still on the turn signal. I'll figure that one out later.
As for Zoomin's reference to the "71" bed : I bought a 1971 truck that had a near perfect bed just to use on this '69. I put another bed on the 71 and Zoomin bought it!
JB1016 - the 72 BB Super is tucked away in my in-laws garage awaiting restoration. When I financially recover from the '69 I'll start on it - it will be a while!!!

Since I bought that other truck from him, I had insider knowledge on what Joshua did. I looked pretty dang smart for a little while.

That's a hard truck to divorce.
