I guess it's not for everyone.

Amazing job on the truck build.

Me too Keith, but I have to admit I didn't even notice it. Either way this thing is so nice.

Sweet job, that's a great looking truck

Thanks Mike! I know the "correct bezels" are black, but with the a/m grille without the imprinted "chevrolet" in black, the black bezels just don't look good to me. Each to their own I guess.

Did this truck get sold already?

solidaxel · 04-05-2012, 12:48 AM

Well I guess the price was about the same for a 2012 or a 1962!!

I wonder how much a 2013/1972 will run in September 0f '12 !!!

greystoke · 04-05-2012, 01:11 AM

the gaps look perfect, did the bodyshop spend a lot of time on those? Awesome looking truck!!!!

Thanks! I wish I could have gotten a little more, but this was the first one of many to come, so I needed to turn it pretty quick to get the ball rolling, or should I say the money flowing!!

I sold it, but I still have it finishing it up for the buyer.

It took me a bit of time, a little cussing, a little bleeding, but it came around in the end. Thanks for the kind words!!

bbinaz59 · 04-05-2012, 10:28 AM

Here are some pics of the progress. The bed has been a ton of work to get it straight. This has been by far the most time consuming part of the build, plus with doing a wood floor conversion, everything is in pieces. I don't think I'll do another wood floor any time soon...

Beautiful !

Bryan that's a nice looking job! Man it looks really slick...

greystoke · 04-07-2012, 09:35 PM

Bryan, do you have a shop in Goodyear?

jtp67-72 · 04-07-2012, 11:19 PM

How did I miss this one?? Very nice ...........know it's a pain...but the wood bed pays in the end.....buyers love um..........jim

bbinaz59 · 04-09-2012, 10:40 AM

Thank you all!! I can't wait to get it all done and move on to the 72. My wife and I worked on fitting and drilling the wood this weekend and got a couple coats of urethane on the wood. I will sand it and clear it a couple more times to make the wood nice and smooth...and hopefully I will get the gate and wheel tubs painted this week... Here are a few pics of the wood floor..
