HEY GUYS, I DIDN'T KNOW WHERE TO POST THIS. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE SOME BEFORE, AND AFTER PICS OF MEMBERS TRUCKS, ESPECIALLY TRUCKS MOST PEOPLE WOULD HAVE GIVEN UP ON. I HAVE A '67 LWB 2WD WITH A '71 BED, AND CHASSIS, A '72 CAB, AND DOORS, '68 FENDERS, '70 STEERING COLUMN, '74 MOTOR (350 4 BOLT),AND AN '80 TRANSMISSION (CAMARO, EASIER THAN YOU THINK!). THE ONLY THING LEFT FROM '67 IS THE HOOD, GRILLE, AND VIN. MY WIFE SAYS GET RID OF IT, BUT I'VE HAD THE TRUCK FOR OVER 15 YEARS, AND I REFUSE TO LET IT GO. BESIDES, MY 4 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER LOVES IT!! (GOTTA START THEM YOUNG!! LOL). WHAT I'M REALLY ASKING IS, LET'S SEE THOSE "BEYOND HOPE" SPECIALS THAT HAVE BECOME REALLY SWEET RIDES, SO I CAN SHOW MY WIFE IT CAN ACTUALLY BE DONE.

I bought my 78 stepside 2 -4 -80 . 2 days before my daughter was born. It came stock with a 250-6 banger, three -on-the-tree.About the only thing original is the rearend with 2.73 gears and that is going away soon. The pics are old bad quality

highboy_04 · 09-06-2003, 12:57 PM

cochino12 · 09-06-2003, 11:10 PM

maybe not beyond hope but it is completely different

COCHINO12, THAT IS SWEET! ALTHOUGH I MUST ADMIT TO BEING PARTIAL TO THE '67-'72'S. MY ONE BROTHER IS INTO THE '73-'87'S, AND I DON'T THINK HE EVER HAD ONE THAT WASN'T ROTTED WORSE THAN MY '67

. HOW LONG DID IT TAKE YOU TO GET IT LIKE THAT? ARE YOU STILL RUNNING THE STOCK DRIVETRAIN, OR HAS THAT BEEN MODIFIED TOO?

Thanks for the compliment, I have been working on it for about 5-1/2 years. Pretty much everything has been redone from the rear end to motor, check out the link in my sig if you would like any more info.
