Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II


...and here is the pinstriping I did on the ashtray...I don't smoke anymore, so the ashtray I use for old bolts, nuts, MAD magazine buttons, Impko decals, any other odds and ends laying around. Three attempts at the design on the ashtray using "1-Shot" and stripped with a "O" Mack. I was trying to keep to the western flourish idea, not so much a geometric west coast thing...more of a "Nudie suit" Texas thing. Vintage Impko water decal next to it.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II

Thank ya, Buttrock..! I love it. I wake up in the night sometimes and go lift the shade and look at it. I feel so fortunate to have gotten it (truck is only a few months old for me). I actually have a ledger the old timer who owned it kept that lists EVERY single repair and every single FUEL UP since 1967! Seriously. I'm continuing it of course, since I believe in the fact that none of us own these trucks...we're only taking care of it until the next person gets it (but if I have anything to say about it that will be a L O N G time from now)!

By the way, Buttrock: Your '70 is a knock-out too! Man, love the color of that one.

The reason I ask is a set of those came with my 71, but I thought they were car hubcaps! Mine have no emblems, just a plain thin stainless cap. I do like them, but didn't think they were correct for the truck.

Thanks!

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Part II

Thanks, Mayo. 95% close now to daily driver. Almost there. Having some lurching issues at high speeds only on occasions...fuel problem of some kind, but I'm honing in on it.
