My First 67-72 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

oldskydog · 03-13-2012, 12:35 AM

Relatively new member just got my first 67-72 truck. I've been into older trucks but never had this style even though I've admired them for quite awhile.
I found a 70 3/4 ton with a good body, original 350 with 10k on rebuild, 3 speed on the column which has to be unusual for a C20. The cab corners and rockers are rust free with the only rust on the truck in the firewall just above the heater box...should be an easy fix. Door panels are pretty nice as well as the carpet. Dash pad is cracked and seat needs recover but new seat cover in green houndstooth is on order. Has compressor and condensor lef from old underdash air which is long gone. Wood steering wheel has to go.
She runs great and sailed through emisiions having been off the road since 2009.
Plans are to fix the little things, maybe replace the wood in the bed, add air and drive the wheels off it.
Here's a few pics. Not too bad for $1200.
