Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
Thank you and thanks everyone for checking out my thread. Its been a great ride so far with this build. Im really looking forward to seeing the body hit the frame and having it start to look like a truck again! I know its in good hands to make that happen. More to come! Happy 4th of July everyone! Go drive a chevy today.

Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
Wow, its been a really packed few weeks. I have lots of photos to update and finally got around to getting some pics of the 65 as well. Gumby is coming along! Del is really kicking ass on the build and its not just my truck, he has 3 others going at the same time. Im editing photos so I will get some posted shortly.

Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
HAHA, sorry guys. I always take my photos as huge files, around 10K megs and then edit them down. It takes a while... But here we go. As you can see, the motor is getting buttoned up. Power steering pump is one, new pulleys on. All the killer ARP 12 point polished hardware is on. Also Del got the rear end powder coated and fully rebuilt with Posi, new gears and new bearings and axles. Looks like the frame is just about dialed. Just need to runs some fuel, air and brake lines. I hear wheels are coming soon!!!
Also a few more shots of the cab. Aside from some small holes in the rockers, this thing is solid! This is my favorite view. Next time im going to polish the back side of the cab so its dialed when we put the body and bed back on. Pics of the 65 in just a few...

Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
Here are some pics of the new driver. 65 C10 with cool patina V8 with 700R4 in it.

Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
Nice trucks! I've liked Gumby for a while now, but the 65 looks sweet! It makes me want one too.

Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
Thanks guys! I will get some more photos together of both trucks for you soon. This week there is a ton going on already and its only Tuesday morning. First thing on the list is to knock out a steering box issue on the old lady's Shoebox.
A bunch of parts showed up for the 65 also so this weekend I will be getting going on dialing that truck in.

Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
Just a quick update, Del got my rear wheel tubs all modded up to fit the big 22's Sectioned and lengthened. Paint is next.
Just had to share this one. I spotted it yesterday on the streets here just rolling! Impala SS lifted on 26s... Donk! I have been working on the 65 and I will share some photos soon.
