Very Nice!

wyatt-erp · 04-02-2005, 08:46 PM

I don't have any pics of the other truck

I have these because I helped my brother work on it in the early stages of rebuild. Sorry.

The other truck is just as nice, it has original paint. Both trucks are very good looking trucks.

phlegm · 04-02-2005, 09:26 PM

Wow, nice ride.

franko72 · 04-02-2005, 09:29 PM

Green rules

I saw the stick you use to steady the core support. We use a stick that is bolted to the front fender hole on the cab on one end and to the core support on the other end. It allows access to the entire engine bay.

incoma · 04-02-2005, 11:29 PM

Yeah, the 1x4 was an afterthought. I bolted up the radiator, core support, etc and put the battery on it, and wham I saw the unit tilt towards the engine about 2" and said, that can't be good. I like your idea for the sides.

The 1x4 was in the way when I worked on the carburator, but not having the boards on the side allowed me access to the engine. The tires are great places to sit.

What's the asking price for the green cheyenne?

72shadetree · 04-02-2005, 11:34 PM

thats one sweet truck

Rod · 04-02-2005, 11:45 PM

Very nice.

cheyenne10 · 04-03-2005, 12:56 AM

excellent looking ride. Can you tell us anything about color matched steering wheel? I asume you painted it with body color.

I would also be interested to hear price for guide.

BraveDave · 04-03-2005, 12:58 AM

*dtlilly* · 04-03-2005, 03:43 AM

That's done very nice. Something about the green trucks that get my attention.

llama · 04-03-2005, 07:35 AM

hey great job! is that a stock color? that is the color we want to use. got the paint numbers?

wyatt-erp · 04-03-2005, 09:55 AM

I'm not sure what his asking price for the Cheyenne will be. My brother will be on the board later. Maybe he will post that info. He Can also get the paint code for you.
The steering wheel and column has been painted to match.

Next project is either a red 72 Super or a factory black, big block, 72 super. Both have been painted and waiting to be put together.

SuperCheyanne72 · 04-03-2005, 04:26 PM

great looking truck! send us more pics from charlotte!

trucks72 · 04-05-2005, 01:40 PM

I painted the column and steering whell the same as the truck. Just basecoat/clearcoat. As for the color it is a dark olive metallic. I do nor remember the color code right now. That for everyones comments on the truck.

Striker169 · 04-05-2005, 04:57 PM

Wow thats really nice What exactly do you all do to get that green what did you tell the paint people?
