Where are the stockers?
With all the bagged/draggers out there...I would like to see some stockers. Here a few of mine. The factory stance and vintage lines are timeless...imo.

Re: Where are the stockers?
my 65 is a stocker, almost original unrestored, except for the front fenders. the only custom stuff on it are the big truck grille, those goofy mirrirs, which work too good to take off, and a reupolstered front seat I stuck in to replace the worn out original.. has 900 miles on it, so I am betting 100k, maybe 200k.
original 283 4spd. I love using it like a truck, and as a truck! |

Re: Where are the stockers?
I have seen that same grille from a 50-80 Series truck, but they CHEVROLET letters were inside the top & bottom bars. I like it both ways and thanks for posting.
Other than maybe a set of late model wheels, I keep my pretty much factory. |

Re: Where are the stockers?
I don't utilize one of those monsters unless I am removing someone else's hack job. I am amazed at some of the stuff I see on the 4-5-6 Chevy trucks I have acquired over the years.

Re: Where are the stockers?
Tony, I really like the K10 stock look, like the one you built with your buddy Lee.

Re: Where are the stockers?
Here's mine. I have been doing a lot of work, but I'm certainly not a good enough body man! However, in the pic is how the truck looked when I got it from my dad, and he got from my grandpa. I'm hoping to return it to Saddle fawn metallic and white top. I kept the original 250 and rebuilt it. It is painted the factory ugly green, but it is original.

Re: Where are the stockers?
Here is my 64'. It was mostly stock except for the aftermarket steel wagon wheels and the add-on mirror. I drove it home with the 5 gallon race can and all the crap in the back!
I have since dropped a 350 v-8, auto 4 speed. Moved the engine back 10". z'd the front 4" and the back 10". Bagging it and redoing the floor. I do plan to keep the stock blue paint though! |

Re: Where are the stockers?
Well, I think it looks better than it really is. The doors still need some body work ,the bedsides have been a bear, and I REALLY need new rockers and cab supports. I don't know enough about welding or sheetmetal work to tackle that, so it is in my garage right now with the bed off. I'm hoping to win the lotto some day and then pay someone to do the rockers and supports.

Re: Where are the stockers?
Here is a picture of the '66 K10 Lee and I finished a few months ago. The second photo is my '66 K10. They almost look like twin brothers.
