Re: 72 k-10 swb
 

my camera is not cooperating here, so I will update in a few days with the rest of the pics since the last pic is from 2 months ago. I fit my hood and bed today and all interior, doors and headliner are done. Only interior left is glove box, stereo and ash tray. After all that set my bumpers and good to go to starbucks for my $4 dollar coffee. It has taken over a year and a butt load of time and money. By the time I am done, with buying the truck and all the parts finding etc..., it will be about $15k total, but it will be a brand new 1972. The color is 2010 Chevy Camero Cyber Gray Metalic and it has blue metal flake that pops out at you in the sun light.


Enjoy, Matt

Nice looking truck!! How do you like the POR-15 ? Did you use the chassis coat ?

Re: 72 k-10 swb

Re: 72 k-10 swb
 

Awesome truck, would you mind taking a measurement to the top of your cab? I am building a truck with same setup and was wondering if it's gonna fit in my garage :)
