Thanks JC, I consider it very fortunate to have found it still intact, being a 62' shorty custom cab (which I thought was kinda rare) I don't have the desire to swap parts out,.... maybe slamming it and changing the wheels but not swapping parts out.

That sounds like a great plan! I can't wait to see what you do to it. She's pristine...

malo66 · 09-12-2013, 06:20 PM

That's a sweet find!

C/10 King · 09-12-2013, 07:51 PM

Very cool! I have never seen an aluminum '62 grill...how rare is that?

LT1 Burb · 09-13-2013, 09:57 AM

That thing is awesome, I am sold on the 63 grille too. Now I have to find myself an aluminum one.

jchav62 · 09-13-2013, 10:08 AM

The more I see of this truck.. the more I want it. Dam...

**MisterC** · 09-13-2013, 10:16 AM

Damn that interior shot is the icing on the proverbial cake. Don't sell it before the C/10 get together (shameless plug) so I can see it in person!

I'm kinda partial to the 60-66 grille...

GMC that is!

Seriously, not a fan of the 62 look but that one polished up might change my mind! I think I know where there is another aluminum one but I will have to drive by and make sure.

Well I was out of town for a few days, so I was unable to work on the truck.....but

the wife stayed home and painted a couple of things.

westcoast5 · 09-16-2013, 01:39 AM

Raider Rudy · 09-18-2013, 12:19 AM

Nice! Give it to ChaChi

C/10 King · 09-18-2013, 01:49 AM

Thanks guys, I had a little time to play with her today,

..... and in the next couple of days she will be coming "down" a few inches and getting a new chrome rear bumper too.

That's a nice looking truck Rene! It will look even better closer to the ground! How much does your wife charge to restore the plates?

Thanks Tony, she used to charge about 70 bucks for the pair but I think I burned her out on the last 5 trucks
