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

jchav62 · 06-23-2009, 11:15 AM

Awesome '62!

**GruntMoanCough** · 06-23-2009, 03:14 PM

Nice! I like the bed liner.

Frizzle Fry · 06-23-2009, 04:10 PM

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

1Bad62Pro/Street · 06-24-2009, 06:20 PM

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.

TwiggyTheDrummer · 06-24-2009, 06:45 PM

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.

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?

design311 · 06-25-2009, 11:44 PM

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.

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!

Norselander · 09-03-2009, 06:03 PM

Cool truck, Kev! Say, you aren't related to Red Green, are you?
