Don't believe it, the 1 family owned super clean 65' longie belongs to a old coworker of mine "Dave" who's Grandfather bought it brand new, this truck has less than 70,000 miles, after all these years Dave says it time for a little comfort like air conditioning, power steering and a tilt, I told him to cut it down to a shorty, he replied no, that he rather cut my throat first! Ouch!

**Clyde65** · 08-15-2012, 05:57 PM

Man that sure is clean!

ChevyFreak60 · 08-15-2012, 06:06 PM

Beautiful truck!

If this Dave fellow is inclined to go all-out for comfort and install some late model leather seats, I'd be happy to get that red vinyl trimmed bench out of his way. - Just here to help.

I thought of you the whole time I looked at the truck, this truck is "almost in your league".

likaroc13 · 08-16-2012, 01:37 AM

very nice! always neat to see them practically untouched over the years...i'm not a big fan of long beds myself, but i wouldn't have the heart to cut one down with that kinda history

1963c-10 · 08-16-2012, 08:16 AM

Very nice truck.

**KevsClassics** · 08-16-2012, 01:45 PM

Please don't tell me he got an Ididit.

Dunenutt · 08-16-2012, 01:58 PM

That truck is beautiful! I don't understand why everyone want's to chop a real bed into a toy bed

Add some creature comforts, and drive the wheels off of it!

You mean like this? I have this old "Richardson Chevrolet" frame from Salinas from my personal Chevrolet collection.

Kev, I told Dave to take it to you, but he was afraid that you'd put speakers in his doors like you did to mine.
