Took it to the alignment shop. Went to my first Niftee Fiftees show! Painted the tailgate...masking off those letters was fun. It's not bolted on in that picture.

Looking great man. When did you go to the Niftee 50s? I finally went to one last weekend and was hoping to see a few guys forum the form but there weren't too many 67-72 trucks. Guess I went a little too late (8pm).

Drove in the neighborhood 4th of July parade with 62LS1 and his awesome '62. Got 2nd! How can you compete with a Pontiac Vibe??

Cruising around and saw this sign...it had to be done.

Thanks! I haven't been in 3 or 4 weeks and I've brought the truck 3 times now. I'll usually be there from around 7-9. Next time I go I'll let you know!

David, that truck looks good. The tailights came out good, they look much better painted red. Are you going to put on a rear bumper or something else on the back end?

When do you head back to Aggieland?

ATTN: Everyone!
I really need anyone and everyones help with body alignment and shimming.
I have the same truck as David and we are so close to painting but cant get that dam body lined up. Please any opinions would help.
We took the truck apart so fast that we don't remember were any of the shims go and if someone could point us in the right direction that would be great.
Body lines are killing us and David, your trucks body lines are perfect in the pics and i really need help. Thank you to everyone on this page! By the way david, your truck is sweet!

Yes, David and his brother Josh did an awesome job on it. Has won some local shows now that its nearly done. I had to jump in a do a repair on the brake switch...NOT FUN...but somewhat relaxing/rewarding none-the-less! (http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=646192) Word to the wise--if you are rebuilding one and the brake switch appears to be OK as ours did, REPLACE IT ANYWAY when you get the steering column apart. It is a massive pain to replace the $7 part once it is all put back together. Tape and creative use of 1/4 drive w/ ujoing w/ extension on rachet helps.

I applaud you young man! It's so good to see a young person have focus and take pride in something worthwhile and positive. God bless you! I know your parents are proud!

Frame is bent, cab and bed are okay other than some body work. The bracing which connects the inner fenders to the cab broke away from the cab, and probably saved it.

I'm deciding the fix the truck, and I have a replacement frame well under way. Stay tuned... Some changes are being made.
