Met some nice folks today, they have an old brown truck
I don't poke around on the 60/66 board much and hadn't followed the build on this truck but seeing it first hand it is a knockout with a number of special touches that work.
I made my annual trek to the Portland Roadster show and toddling down the row and after escaping hungry NAPA sales folks pushing their products I spotted what used to be an old farm truck.      I don't know what this seat originated in or as but it fits this truck perfectly.  Photos don't do the wood work in this bed justice.     It was great meeting the two of you and seeing the truck and hearing the story of it and the work you did.

Re: Met some nice folks today, they have an old brown truck
Is the "Chevrolet" written on the tailgate a factory option? Is it a decal or an chrome style emblem?

Mr48chev
Thanks for taking your time to snap some shots. We had a good time at the roadster show being are first big indoor show. We had a lot of nice comments about The Old Brown Truck and the story about her. PS The seat is a Buddy Bucket out of a 68 C-10 |
