some pics of my fixed cab corner. Lost the pic of it after the deer but it was smashed. they cut it and replace the corner and painted my brake booster.

J-Rod · 02-20-2006, 06:12 PM

Sweet. Now let's see some pics of the whole truck.

76bonanza · 02-20-2006, 06:20 PM

DTerry · 02-20-2006, 06:30 PM

Wow. Looks great!

67ChevyRedneck · 02-20-2006, 06:32 PM

A deer hit your cab corner? weird! That's definately a sharp truck though. Gotta love them 67/68's

76bonanza · 02-20-2006, 06:36 PM

I ran it over it was down in the road.

I bought some ralley wheels from the guy you bought your truck from 76 bonnaza. It's from coffeyville KS right? When it was restored he said he he used a 68 camaro brake booster.

76bonanza · 02-21-2006, 10:30 PM

Ya coffeyville did you get some good rims from him? The booster that was on it was leaking vaccum like crazy got this one new for a 3/4 71 p.u. and got it painted to match the truck. I hit the deer in the road 15 minutes from his house after buying it. Seemed like an ok guy. they cut out some bondo from the corner that was about 2 inches thick.

davidh · 02-21-2006, 10:34 PM

http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=189762 This was the guy who told me of using the camaro booster on 4drum brakes. How do your brakes work?

davidh · 02-21-2006, 10:37 PM

I never saw the truck up close. The pics looked really good of it. I didn't think you could use disc/drum power boosters on all drum brakes. I hope it's not full of bondo. The way this guy talked he put these trucks together all the time. 2" of bondo is scarey though. I know he wanting something like $9500 for it. did he paint it himself? Is that the original 68 blue?

76bonanza · 02-21-2006, 10:57 PM

not sure if he painted it it is very much like the original blue but a little more metalic I think. The booster I got for the 3/4 71 looked just like the one he had on it stops great made me change my mind about the disk upgrade. So far this was the bondo I found. I did not pay what he wanted lots of little things to fix but runs strong nice daily driver for me. I still have plans for lots of upgrades tho and have done a lot since a bought it.

bojoe · 02-21-2006, 11:11 PM

Looks good no doubt, I always have loved blue.

**N2TRUX** · 02-21-2006, 11:17 PM

Turned out nice...
