Beautiful build and in my opinion it is hard to beat Hugger Orange. I love that color!

72BlckButy · 02-18-2011, 10:07 PM

Awesome build, keep up the great work!

HSkinner · 02-20-2011, 02:20 AM

Nice build but one major flaw in most of those pics..... THE MOUNTAIN VIEW TORO shirt your wearing. If you were wearing a Jackrabbits shirt I would have subscribed.... LOL

**Bugeyev8** · 02-20-2011, 11:14 AM

what brand of paint is that you are using?? the bed looks great !!!

Keep up the nice work and post more pics !!

Hey ChevyGuys,

I had a Cream colored Peterbilt with fenders painted that same Orange and I'm thinking of the same paint combo on my '66. Looking good...! Your step-son looks like he does might fine work, is he for rent...? And I'm glad to see the bird houses got relocated before the garage walls went up. Next time I need tires, we'll go shopping together...

Keep up to great work and more photos, please. Can't wait to see more...

Danny

Haha! That's my stepson... I'm an old fart! (40) he says to tell you that if he was wearing a jackrabbits shirt the truck would just be sitting on blocks with nothing happening... J/k

I'm not much younger than you. There will forever be a rivalry between Mesa High and Mountain View. Nice Build regardless....

chevyguys · 02-21-2011, 07:06 PM

Check out the cab corners.. Only in Arizona

chevyguys · 02-21-2011, 07:12 PM

Found a 941-1 engraved in the firewall... Any idea's?

allaboutchevelles · 02-21-2011, 10:33 PM

Wow, Very nice build you have going. I love the color!! What kind of media was used on your cab? I wish my cab was in as good of shape as yours was when I started. Did you paint the bed inside the garage or outside? Nice job!!

Thanks! Media was plastic. Bed was painted in the garage... Just threw plastic down and made a vent system using cheap box fans from walmart.

My buddy has a 65 GMC BBW SB that he is working on. He decided to have some custom glass cut for his truck and ordered me a set as well. We had talked about getting custom glass made with a grey tinting instead of the typical black for a nice, but a bit different look. The glass is not super dark (33%) so it should look pretty good. I have been on the fence with the glass because I am after a semi stock look. However, you can't look a gift horse in the mouth.... and I think this is going to look cool with the light grey tint and the orange... We will see... Sorry about the pics.. they are from his cell.. I'll post better ones later.

Rusteeze64GB · 09-01-2011, 01:35 PM

Sean it looks great! I need to swing by sometime and check it out. It has been forever since we talked.

mikesC10 · 09-01-2011, 06:32 PM

I really dig that flat color look!

**LostMy65** · 09-14-2011, 12:00 AM

That is one amazingly clean cab.
