Let me know if you want to entertain this idea any more, I would like to start with an automatic v8 truck instead of converting. Mine has a lot done just needs a heart transplant. Turlock I know.

Nice score cant wait to see what you do with it..... Looks like I need to look through my box o parts Im sure I have a few sets of super rare bullseye reverse lights hahahhahhaha

70-Shorty · 12-24-2011, 09:38 PM

it looks like it was a twin to mine before my Dad wrecked it (long ago). Mine is a 70 first sold in june of 70...it was medium olive with (i think) the same interior and 350/350 combo. My dad bought it new from Giant Chevrolet in Visalia.

You sure are the man when it comes to sniffing out these jewels...

Yeah...dull,like the rest of the truck. If you can't find crusty old ones maybe you can dump battery acid on 'em or something that likes to eat metal. Maybe bead blast. There's an art to patina. So elegant in a crusty way

Another idea would be dull driver quality wheel covers with whitewalls. But,I suggest leaving the tires somewhere dogs will pee on them so they'll uh...yellow. HEY! I said there's an art to patina,didn't I??
