^ if I was gonna get a cowl hood, I would make it wider; maybe even out to the "natural" curves of the hood.

I like everything except the hood and steering wheel. But I'd take it!

I kinda like the hood! I'm going to have the V line shape on the middle of the my cowl. Do some Country Boy Designing. Make a mold some how.

Re: Post Your 60-63 Body Style Chevy/GMC Trucks

Man, that's a sweet looking truck. I'd ditch the steering wheel though. I dig the cowl hood, bed, and small Chevy logo on the tailgate though.

Old custom classic trucks have soul. Their dashboards aren't plastic, and they've survived both the best and worst of what the 20th century had to offer. For the owners of these trucks, it's often the same story. Through both good and bad times they persevered, until one day they could turn the key and roll up in a customized truck everyone with good taste would admire.Custom Classic Trucks

Re: Post Your 60-63 Body Style Chevy/GMC Trucks

Well, here's my first post. I just picked up this little gem from a guy locally. Dropped 4 - $100 bills on him and walked away with the title.

I am definately not new to these trucks. In fact I've owned 2 1965s and 3 1966 C10s over the years.

Here's a couple pics of my find:

Looks like a nice straight truck and it's 5 lug already too. What year is it? did it come with front sheetmetal? What are your plans for it?

Re: Post Your 60-63 Body Style Chevy/GMC Trucks

Yup, came with all the sheet metal. It's a 63 model with a 77 front/rear end. The only thing I really need to come up with is an engine. I'm thinking something old school like a 327. There is something about the 350 that is just so ordinary to me. Hopefully I can keep snapping pics along the way and start a restoration thread.

Re: Post Your 60-63 Body Style Chevy/GMC Trucks

I'll take a crack at it Captain!
'63
No X frame
Looks like single hole firewall(booster)
No side window frames( though '62's may have offered frameless as well,not sure on that one)
Looks like a great start,all the hard stuff looks to be done already

Sure did! My neighbour has a JCB but that day he was out working with it so I had to strap the dump bag of sand to a steel post at side of my house and just drive away as I needed the truck for another errand!

Did the job though!
