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

Re: Post Your 60-63 Body Style Chevy/GMC Trucks
I like everything except the hood and steering wheel. But I'd take it!

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

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: Last edited by design311; 06-24-2009 at 10:11 PM. |

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 T
