Hello again - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hello again everyone. When I first posted here I had just purchased a '65 chevy pu. Well, I just purchased another '65 chevy pu. It's the same color but, in much better shape than the first. The new truck also came from the factory with power steering but not power brakes. Also has A/C vents in dash...A/C doesn't work( will need anothercompressor ). The power steering on this truck is different than modern P/S. The master cylinder failed on this truck 2 days after I bought it...almost had a few accidents getting her stopped. I first thought about doing disc brakes on the front but, have changed my mind. Just going to replace the master cylinder with one with brakebooster on it and, keep the drum brakes for awhile.

Edit: Tried to attach some pics...don't know what happened.

Edit: Here's a link to the pics.

Wow, that is a nice looking truck and the rare options makes it that much more desirable.

Yes, I do. It's in pieces at the time. Needs a radiator, rear brakes( just rebuilt the front discs along with a new powerbooster/mastercylinder) Need to get this truck going to have something to drive. Then, I'm going to work on the first truck, get it running then sell it
