The white 72 SWB is coming in. Hey, I didn't say they were all real nice. I thought the 8track tape player & huge CB whip antenna was a nice touch. :barf: The rougher the cheaper. Good foundation to build from: title, frame & box.

The copper & wht 71 is leaving...for the paint shop. Wish me luck. I am trying a new painter and you know how wrong that can go. I stripped off: glass, grill, bumpers, rubber, trim, & interior. So it couldn't be any easier for the painter. If you don't see more pictures of this truck later, you will know it turned to crap. :rolleyes:

That hauler is like a "Chick Magnet" for 67-72 trucks! :cool:

Man, I really like that 2 tone one that's going in for paint. Are you keeping it the same color?

Any history on that stripe? It's not factory, right?

I love hot rod trucks...but, that copper & white is a correct rust free Cheyenne...so, I am just going to return it to the stock look with new wood trim, etc.
It is going to get buckets with Houndstooth covers...kind of generically correct for the year...it is the way GM would have done it IF they had done it. :)
350/350/PS/PB...added tilt & tach...so it is cool to drive and I am going to use it as a daily driver. No "Hanger Queen" here...that's what my Blazer is for...nice weather only.
