Just picked up an original paint 67 gmc... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**too much stuff** · 07-23-2023, 10:05 AM

Yep, it is the one i sold recently. It had 2 owners since i sold it. The first was going to do the rockers and cab corners and spot in the repairs to keep it original... That didn't happen. Instead he cut the dash for a cd player, covered all the original paint inside the box, stuck stickers on it, put a wood wheel in it and so forth. He was talking about painting it when owner 2 stepped in and saved it. Owner 2 did upper ball joints, wide slots with new tires, new brakes, wheel cylinders, hardware kits, power booster and MC. Replaced power steering pump, water pump and some other things.
I saw it roll into a local car show and met owner 2 and got to talking. He had it for sale or trade. Told him about the Big Block project truck i hauled home from texas recently and a deal was made. Not sure what i will do with it this time.

Pic 1 is the dash in the 67 .
Here is the truck for partial trade towards it. Good solid complete truck but needs alot of work. He was thrilled with it.

Here is from before i sold it.

I should add, i was able to buy back the original wheel and horn cap before we even discussed our deal.

**chewychevy67** · 07-23-2023, 11:18 AM

Too bad he cut the radio. Other than that everything else is more easily reverse able . And I could live with the bed coating. Looks like they did an OK job. Hope you got a better deal on it than you sold it for.

**MJN** · 07-23-2023, 12:49 PM

thankfully the V6 is still there and wasn't torn out for a V8

jumpsoffrock · 07-23-2023, 03:11 PM

Is that clear coat over the "paint"?
The big block truck was pretty cool too.

There was talk about putting a v-8 into it.

Still original paint with nothing on it. The big block truck was cool too but it has just been sitting. The new owner is already tearing it apart and calling me for parts...

That sounds like a win, win to me...

.. Get a nice truck back and sell the guy parts.

Oh yeah!

I am glad We live Miles away

If you were my Neighbor.

I would be in big trouble with my Wife.

**special-K** · 07-25-2023, 06:13 AM

To bad they don't make "NO CD PLAYER" stickers

Not sure why, but the guy was sticker happy. Had a bunch on the back window.

**special-K** · 07-28-2023, 10:19 AM

I first read the title and thought, "Didn't recently sell the one he had? Could this one be nicer?". Then I noticed it didn't say "another" and sure enough, there it is! That truck is like a homing pigeon... boomerang?... horny little dog after your leg?

**too much stuff** · 03-22-2025, 11:31 AM

Just an update. I ended up selling the truck again to a father/son combo and both seem very excited about it. The dad has already put quite a few miles on it and fixed a few little things on it. I think it went to a good home. Here is the son as we loaded it up. Now as long as i don't drag anything else home...

Is this supposed to be a joke?

**68bowtie** · 03-22-2025, 03:19 PM

^^^Hahahaha

That’s cool!

54blackhornet · 03-22-2025, 05:02 PM

I was told that there is a special place in hell for those who cut dashes for big ugly radios.

Luke87gt · 03-22-2025, 06:17 PM

Love the color / Patina on that one
