I'm from Arkansas and love my 67swb - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

The Big Green · 10-07-2007, 11:19 AM

I'm from Fort Smith,AR and I have a 1967 chevy 2wd sw that I have had sense I was 16 and I'm now 26. It was in an older guys truck that was sitting in his feild. It took about 30 mins to help get the wore out 283 started and loaded on a trailer. I'm the 3rd owner of this truck the guy I helped get the 283 running was my uncle I got it off him I guess that makes me part 2nd owner because I helped...lol. We put in a 327 and 400turbo,replaced rocker panels,and painted it. I had a new seat put in it with matching visors and dash pad. It looks good but people asked why I put Courderoy in it, and I don't really know I guess because It has that old look. The truck is I guess a teal green and the seat is a light brown. Anyways, enough about my truck...I would really like to start customizing it and this site may be what I need.
