Re: Is my unique 72 welcome here?

I usally keep quiet... but I just have to say that I would love to have that!

That would be the perfect home for my lonely big block patiently waiting on the engine stand.

The search is on for a C-10 or a P-10!

Re: Is my unique 72 welcome here?

Man, you could make a sweet hauler with that. Paint it like a delivery truck outside and make a nice camper/RV inside to take to shows. The university where I work has two P30 step vans from the mid 70's and they use that same 67-72 style grill. It looks like the same grill the BIG 67-72's use.
Love the stance in the first pic.....

Yeah I love the whole dash, even the dark red paint. If i could figure out how to keep the darn custom center from falling off the steering wheel and into the street when I have the doors open I'd be really happy, LOL.

I bought this off of an awesome custom car builder from Cincinnati, Ohio. He had it on ebay for $10,000 reserve and it didn't sell, I got it later for a good bit less when another deal fell through, thus the Ohio Plates. These were his pics except for the last one at Sheetz Mini Mart. He's a good picture taker as well.

I'm with you, I just don't like the chop look on these. Here's a really nice one with the best looking chop I've seen, but I still think it would look better with the top left alone:

I'm in the same boat... I have a Caddy 500CID being build and now where to put it. I measured it and unless I move the engine between the seats or to the rear it won't fit without major surgery to the doghouse and then there wouldn't any room for my pedals. I really wanted to put a V8 in this but way to much work. Besides, I think a tweaked 292 inline looks even kewler these days if done up right and still has the power

Re: Is my unique 72 welcome here?

Is the horn cap actualy a wheel hub cap of some sort? Looks like a regular 67 steering wheel painted and the cool cap. Id like to go that route on my 67.

I agree with the 292 it will be WAY cooler with the I6. OH SURE a fire spittin big block would be fun but not very good for a daily driver.

While I would roll with the inline... the big block cad would offer all the torque he could ever need(in stock form) and if the rear was swapped out to a 3.07 gear, it would more likely than no knock down better MPG than the inlines, or any other old school motor that would typicly find it's way in there.

As for installing it, you could always offset it to the passenger side.

TOO FUNNY!!! I actually thought it might be you or someone from the board. To bad we didn't have cell phone numbers. I may be back today.

We should do it again at your cookout if you don't mind me coming down.

Nice Pickup!!!
