A pic of my buddys truck & mine. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Sillyoldman · 06-19-2005, 07:58 PM

When my truck got out of the body shop, my buddys truck went in. It has been a long wait to see the two together fully restored. I thought it would be cool to post a couple pics. His is a 1957 Cameo. The pics are not of great resolution so you cant see the ghost flames in his truck. Turned out real nice.

Both trucks are awesome, Silly. Are thopse hubcaps on the 71 stock? We dug one up like that when we were excavating for our garage. I still have it, it's painted white and a bit rusty.

Those are stock for my truck. In fact I have been working on recreating a window sticker for it. The chrome hub caps were a $10.00 upgrade over the painted ones. Thought that was funny. What really is a surpise is the guy that ordered the truck spent $45.00 for the tool storage box. I on the other hand have spent much more than that just for replacement hinges alone not factoring
a ton of work to keep it. Thanks all for the compliments.

Very nice truck! I plan to do a frame off 72 swb chev in the same colors as your truck once I am done playing with my GMC. It was a tough call between light orange/white and blue/white, but I REALLY like orange so that is what it will be. I rarely see the orange combo, while blue and white trucks seem to be everywhere. Do you find this as well?

sixty8c10 · 06-21-2005, 09:33 AM

do you happen to have the color number for that orange, and can i get ppg to mix it for me?

Sillyoldman · 06-21-2005, 12:10 PM
