Me and the 67 had a busy week!!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**John Fabris** · 05-01-2007, 09:42 AM

Hi Gang,

Well, last week I got my truck back from the interior shop where I had a mild custom int done with original overtone. Check out the pictures!! After that, I had the truck appraised for insurance purposes and they loved my truck and gave it a value of $36,000 to replace, and then on Sunday here at a local car show for the high school (over 400 cars and trucks showed up!!) my truck took first place for Trucks 60-75 catagory with a 70 chevy stepside taking 3rd, and a 66 chevy taking 2nd.

FINALLY got a shot of my ghost flames! They always dissappear on film..

**John Fabris** · 05-01-2007, 09:42 AM

Rest of the int pictures. mostly the stereo stuff..

Here is an ovehead shot they did on the firetruck ladder of the show.
My truck is in the bottom row. They cut off about another 50 cars behind me.
Also, note there there are more cars off to the left, and if you look past the building on the left,
there are more cars going all the way out to the pier...

Idaho Outlaw · 05-01-2007, 11:26 AM

Beautiful pickup! Love the interior.

glock35ipsc · 05-01-2007, 11:37 AM

Still my favorite truck, hands down! I like it even better than mine. John, the interior is killer! Just like the rest of the truck, nice subtle touches that make it unique. This is the truck, IMO, that sets the standard!!

LooseScrews · 05-01-2007, 11:45 AM

Holy cow! That is BEAUTIMOUS!!!!!!

*72CSTC5* · 05-01-2007, 11:49 AM

Very nicely done. Looks great. Congratulations are in order!!

faribran · 05-01-2007, 12:03 PM

i feel the same as lots of others here..... "my Favorite"

Spanky_Pete · 05-01-2007, 12:05 PM

Simply beautiful truck, I really dig that speaker setup.

**Palf70Step** · 05-01-2007, 01:09 PM

Very Nice John!!

**John Fabris** · 05-01-2007, 11:24 PM

Thanks Guys!! This truck turned out way better then I expected!!

I am already working on another 67 short fleet project that will be custom. Even going to put in the 402 from that rusty longhorn that I found...

Rokcrln · 05-01-2007, 11:35 PM

Sweet as always! I never knew their were ghost flames as well on your truck, I really need to stop buy and meet one of these days. How do you like the heated seats?

Hey Rokcrln,

I never really said anything about the flames cause I could not get them to show up in the pictures. The flames cover the front of the hood, onto the fenders and back onto the doors. Kinda fun watching the ones that are keen on paint notice the flames after looking for a minute or so.

Love the heaters, only way to go!!! keeps my lower back loosened up...

Let me know when you are driving thru Vallejo or Benicia and you are more then welcome to come by!

shifty · 05-02-2007, 12:08 AM

nice placement on the seat heater switch. truck is incredibly wlel polished, and i can't wait till the day when mine is in the same place!!

Really nice John and it's worth every penny of $36000.00 maybe more. Love the attention to detail .... looks sweet!

huero · 05-02-2007, 02:03 AM

Wow! That truck is perfect!!! Great job!

Bishops Trucks · 05-02-2007, 03:26 AM

That truck deserves a first place finish. Beautiful job!

68C15 · 05-02-2007, 06:45 AM

whenever I see you make a post with pics I get all flustered. "more pics of that sweet truck!" the interior is subtle yet glamorous. good idea with the speakers. I like the seat heaters.
