Finally, Pic of the wrecked side, repaired - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

For those of you who thought I was hiding the wrecked side of my '67 in the pics I posted a while back, you were right. I was hiding it because I didn't have the trim on. I finally got some trim clips and put it on. Here is the pic.

Looks really nice!!

**Palf70Step** · 07-27-2004, 05:25 AM

Glad she whole again. Looks great!!

krue · 07-27-2004, 05:31 AM

Looks good. My only question is....where are all the pine trees and what is that big thang behind your truck?

TEXAS 68 · 07-27-2004, 05:32 AM

Nice job

**Yukon Jack** · 07-27-2004, 12:17 PM

Bet your smiling now the truck is correct again - looks great!

Putter · 07-27-2004, 12:25 PM

Hey Krue, I wonder if that's a fallout/bomb shelter in the background. And that truck sure does take your mind off the fact that there are no pine trees in the picture, too. That's the tallest hill I have ever seen (sorta' FLAT in the Mississippi delta).

CLEAN AVATAR, I MEAN, CLEAN LOOKING TRUCK.

7gmc2 · 07-27-2004, 06:04 PM

this was wrecked? man could have fooled me! looks great! love the color too....

walker · 07-27-2004, 07:29 PM

Pine Trees... Sheesh

That is a palo verde, which means tree green in spanish. That hill in the background is called pyramid peak, it was an indian camp and lookout, still some pottery shards on the top. It pales in comparison to the other side of the drive way, which are some of the largest mountains in the Tonto national forest. Yes they do call it a forest even with no pine trees.
Here is a Pic off my back porch before last nights monsoon storm.

Nice job the the repair look's better than new..

*dtlilly* · 07-27-2004, 11:39 PM

WOW, looks good! I have been waiting to see the final pics after the wreck

sweet n rare67 · 07-28-2004, 12:38 AM

that is an awesome truck!!! i love that color...what is it??

walker · 07-28-2004, 07:52 PM

The color is the original "Vermillion" (not to be confused with Vermin). It has come back into style now, as I have seen a lot of brand new cars/suvs with a very close color on them.

**68 Stepside** · 07-28-2004, 07:56 PM

Walker, the truck looks great. And I'm really partial to that color, since my 68 was originally that color as well. It really is a great color....maybe I should paint mine back to the original color. Every time I see a nice vermillion metallic truck, I wanna put mine back....lol

Bamm · 07-28-2004, 11:15 PM

Dang, you guys have rainbows before the storm? That looks cool. Nice truck too.......Jerry
