How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks - Page 34 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Rezzato · 08-15-2009, 01:57 PM

I got this truck for 100 bucks from a lady with a clean and currently registered non op title. I have put little money into it so far. When I get some more money together I will paint it the original light blue.

Strodder · 08-15-2009, 03:51 PM

I paid $200 for mine. Looks like you got an even better deal at $100. Your off to a great start.

**aerotruk63** · 08-15-2009, 06:35 PM

That if I'm not mistaken is a deluxe steering wheel for a 66 minus the ring. Nice project. 3/4 ton, good hauler! Not a criticism but black in SoCal, Northern Fat people sweat.LOL

Fleetside65 · 08-15-2009, 07:36 PM

here is my 65 heap....i'm new, name is seth, live in central IL...bought this survivor on ebay from texas about 2 months ago... very solid, a little rust in the usual spots on the front fenders and a little on the doors....have a few small spots on the cab floor to repatch...front grill is tweaked in one sopt pretty good, alot of little dents and dings but nothing major....283, the tranny is messed up though, originally 3 on the tree but someone hacked a hole in the floor and put some sort of floor shifter kit in it and they basically ripped 1st out of it, its difficult to find gears, but still somewhat drivable, havent had it out on the highway yet, just neighbord streets, so we'll see......

sellers pics....

truck was originally painted red, someone put this blue paint on it, its held up pretty well.

my pics of playing with a few rattle cans of rustoleum....i put new tires with 85 blazer rallys on it today.

Fleetside65 · 08-15-2009, 07:37 PM

i want to eventually paint it satin black with cab over white and white front end like looks now, c notch with manual bags, disc brake conv (leave it 6 bolt), etc...plan on doing a 5.3/4L60E swap this winter....basically this is shaping up to be a winter garage project. have some door panels, wiring stuff, & dash scoped out at the junkyard, just have to find time to go back with power tools to get the stuff out (and wasp spray!!!)....picked up a decent 456 grill off craigslist for $50 from some guy a few blocks away from my place.

Yeah it says super sport in the middle of it. The truck was strange when I got it. It had a 350 with headers to 90 degree bend pipes out to the side. Needless to say it was ridiculously loud. I built a quieter exhaust for it now. A week later the lady who sold it to me called me and said she found a box of parts and in it was a Holley double pumper along with other trim pieces. I haven't had the chance to step on it much but the few times i did it threw me back in the seat. It's gonna be black for a couple months...light blue when I get to it.

Here's some pics of my '66, taken at today's Brownsville "Stand By Me" Cruise In. It's a celebration at the town of Brownsville, Oregon where the movie "Stand By me" was filmed in '86.

Hood ornaments...

And what's a celebration of "Stand By Me" without a pie eating contest. Here's my boy:

**aerotruk63** · 08-16-2009, 06:26 AM

Nice truck Fleetside65. The white top and wheels look great.

Strodder · 08-16-2009, 10:34 AM

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.

I like the interior! Sweet truck!

Been a while since i have been on here. Not much of an update but another pic. Since the birth of second child my progress has been pretty come to a stop. Hoping to get back started on it before long.

65ona90 · 08-20-2009, 11:18 AM

This is my current project, 65 chevy on a 90 chevy C3500 frame. 454 big block chevy, th400, dana rear end (all standard on the 3500). I'm currently in the process of putting a 6" front/8" rear lowering kit on it. Just got the c-notches done yesterday. It's a slow moving project but i'm hoping to have it on the read by april.
