New to me truck.
Just purchased this 67 and thought I would post a couple of pictures. I have had a 66 for a while but when I found this one I couldn't pass it up. Have to sell the 66 now. This truck has a lot less rust than my 66.
I have been reading all the posts and learning a lot about 67's. The drivers portion of the buddy bucket seat is pretty worn out. Any pointers as to where to find new covers to match would be appreciated. Not sure of the color either. It is a V8 4 speed. and I think it is mostly original. I have an LQ9 6.0L I would like to put in it eventually and maybe make it a short bed. Not set on the short bed though. Any info or opinions are welcome. |

Re: New to me truck.
Only original once, in my opinion fix it up and drive her. I always do a little hotrodding but it's always era appropriate. Just my .02 . Killer lookin rig btw!

Nice Custom Sport Truck! The interior looks to be the Fawn color. There are a couple of members on here that sell seat covers for the Buddy Bucket seats. Member "Truckseats" & member "Grumpy Old Man" for sure. New foam is also available but it is a little pricey. LockDoc

Re: New to me truck.
Is that wrap around the rear bumper stock? I never noticed that before. I think it will make you a nice truck.

Re: New to me truck.
Great find. I'd lower it, leave the original paint, and have fun. I think the engine swap is a great idea.

Re: New to me truck.
Very nice. A mild drop and a sport bumper and you've got perfection. Would NOT shorten it.

Very nice truck. Exterior is identical to mine, just wish mine had the options yours does inside and under the hood. Also jealous you still have your hubcaps!

Re: New to me truck.
Love the Vermillion on Fawn color combo. I had the same except mine was an automatic Custom cab with no Buddie buckets. Any underhood pictures?

Does it say anything about the engine or transmission on the SPID? (on inside of glove box door) A picture of the SPID would be nice.... LockDoc

Re: New to me truck.
Tha engine sure looks like either a 283 or a 327. Nice truck, and I'm in the leave it alone camp.

Re: New to me truck.
Very nice truck, man! Hope to see it around sometime. As far as the carb goes, I might be wrong, but I believe in 67 The only option was a two barrel. Mine stock had the 327 two barrel.

Re: New to me truck.
So When I bought this truck I did a quick look at it but did not drive it or look inside too closely. When I picked it up a few days before Thanksgiving it was raining and cold. I brought it home and parked in in a tent shelter and it turned really cold right after. Today I went to take a picture of the SPID and I found these. Not sure if they are original or not. I was told that the truck was a 2 owner truck and that the 64000 miles were original but I didn't really give that information too much credit. I am starting to wonder now.
