Photos F/Frank Pickmup - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Frank, Got some not so good photos of the bucket seatsyou sold me. My camera is crappy and the light was not right but you get the idea. The seats came out nice. Waiting on a carpeted gas tank cover and ash tray to come in now. I know they are not factory correct for a 72 but they are awesome to ride in. Went ahead and threw a couple more photos of the truck in too.

very nice truck...i like the stock two-tone and trim trucks lowered and nothing else done to them...when ever i repaint my truck (after my brother drives it through high school) i think i'll go two tone with those colors or possible olive green/white

I'm sooooo jealous!

I hope you get the chance to bring it up this weekend when you come. I've got to see that in person.

**GSFMECH** · 10-29-2004, 04:13 PM

Hugger, you will see it tomorrow afternoon. It looks a lot better in the photos than in real life though, it needs a proper paint job. I will drive it rain or shine. Thanks for the compliments everyone.

Great truck...and very nice seats!!! I have ordered Houndstooth covers and will be putting buckets in my 71 Cheyenne that I just bought back (sold it two years ago in a weak moment).

Thanks for the pics.

GSFMECH, first off, wicked-bad truck!! How is it lowered? What are you running for wheels/tires (size)? Let's see some more pics!!

**GSFMECH** · 10-30-2004, 12:55 AM

I love the color of that truck Frank. I do not regret putting the buckets in my truck and I know you won't either, the comfort factor went way up. Silvertonguedevil, I have 15" American TT 11's 7's on front 8's on the rear. 245 and 275 60's. I have a Early Classic 4/6 drop. I did everything exactly like Dave Clark the owner of Early Classic did to "this old truck" a few years ago that was in one of the magazines. The drop, wheels tires etc. are the same as he has. This was the only other photo I had handy. Thanks again everyone for the compliments.
