Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks

Well done. Looks a lot like what I'm going for with mine, except mine will be a darker shade of blue. Congrats on a job well done.

You got more done on your first post than a lot of us who have posted for years. including me. Keep up the good work and welcome to the board.

It had major rust in the floor of the cab which was cut out and new metal was welded in and bodyworked. It's going to be painted a custom dark blue pearl color. Here are some picture of it when we started and they way it currently looks in primer.
Welcome to the boards. Always nice to see new Oklahoma members on here.

First, larger pictures are needed if you're going to be showing off such sweet rides.
Second, what's with the paint in that last picture? Same truck, right?
Third, I LOVE that interior!

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks

Use 640x480 that's usually a good size.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks

Sorry it's taken me a few days to get back on here. Thanks for the compliments. As for the questions:

Carpet and floormats came that way when I bought it. I'm not sure if you can tell in the pics, but the chevy bowtie is in the floormats. I assume it's stock carpet though.

Wheel and tire sizes are: front 255/60/15 on 15x7 rims
back 275/60/15 on 15x8

Finally got my exhaust done although it came at a big price. On the way to the shop, the flatbed operator didn't hook up the chain very well to keep my truck from rolling backwards (and left it in neutral). Stopped at a light and my truck rolled back and smashed into cab of flatbed. Minor bumper damage, taillight and trim smashed, and the bumper pushed in and crumpled the sheetmetal a bit. It's being taken care of next week and they're paying for it of course. But it's still a pain in the ***.

Thanks again for compliments.

Mike
