Re: post your 67-72 4x4
Here's my new toy/money pit - a 1972 1/2 ton stepside. Has a 350, SM465 4 speed, ps and pdb and a heapin' helpin' of ferrous oxide!! If it looks familiar it's because it was pictured on page 24 while owned by DavTay in Jacksonville.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
So how long is that work box, are they 9ft compared to a 8ft box, heard they were a longer frame, not sure on 67-72 though. Cool truck.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
I don't know about the frame but I can check when I get back home (~2weeks). I think the box is aftermarket.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
Oh ok, good for you especially if you don't keep the box in the future. A friend of mine bought an 85 I think it is, a K20 and had a work box which he removed and found the frame was a foot longer but in the middle so had to cut the frame and shorten it then weld it back together (at a reputable shop) to fit a 8ft box, so good for you on yours. Would look cool to keep the box and lift it a bit more, likin it.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
Yea I like the bed, very functional for securing my things, and its kinda grown on me. Looking to put a 4" lift on her but that's a little down the road $$$. Thanks for the info.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
You guys make my Suburban look tiny lol
Anyways, it's got Detroit Lockers, NP205, 350/350, with the regular engine mods (Edelbrock, etc, etc), and some Doug Thorley long tubes. Soon to get some 3/4 ton leaf springs up front and some blocks in the back to even it out, and hopefully some new tires.

finally a paint job! 1967 K-20 CST
after a few years of trying to get it together I finally painted my truck...I settled on a single stage urethane w/ hardener...original color...nice paint...Nason by DuPont ...
used my 30 gallon compressor and a water filter...45 pounds pressure...solid two coats with thgree on the hood, roof and doors...hit the inside bed too a little...still have a 1/4 gallon left over...I painted the roof green...( it was white and the body green) if I dont like it I will re spray it white??? this morning I did the jambs, hood sides and hit a spot or two I missed under one quarter...all with a small foam roller...worked like a charm...minimal tape necessary... May is good weather...no bugs(well a few) nice temps and no humidity yet...this is something I did 40 years ago ...and decided to do it again for oldd time sake...also saved a bundle...275 dollars in paint, hardner and some reducer and tape... it was fun...started at 8 in themorning after wet sanding w/ 400 the night before...only a few runs, nothing a little 600 and some wax wont fix...I do need to get the letter decals for the tailgate...also I lost one of the cab light bezels on the first test ride...I must have un hooked it when I pulled the tape of...that will probbably be harder to fix than anything else... ...and I think its running a bit better too...LOL... 1967 K-20 CST 4 wd 327 ci 4 speed... all the best...ted  three rools of tape later...boy is tape $$ now...  the letters cleaned up nice...  almost ready...

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
WOW! Can you come on down to Florida and paint mine? JK. That is real nice. And that color is growing on me more every time I see it. Kinda wish my truck were older now. Congrats sir. So many never make it to paint...

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
Silvertip67, looks great. I finally dropped mine at the painter. I don't have the shop, tools or skill. I did strip her done to bare metal. She is going back to the 504 and 502 two tone (Lt Olive green and white). Trim is done. I have to finish the tail gate trim and repaint the front grill. It was silver and the PO bainted it black. I found one decent 69 door and a marginal 71 door (passenger side). Mine were dead. I think I will run out of $$$ and I will do the bed liner myself.
71 veronica, looking good send pics when done! I'll do the same |
