Lassie came home!!!!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

C/10 King · 11-11-2014, 05:50 PM

I owned this truck once before, a 66' Short Fleet BBW and it's still not done

but...... it's a lot further than before, a frame off restoration sporting a 327/700R4, AC cab, with a Tach and a "Kev's Classic's" Tilt that looks factory! Just needs paint, a wood kit, a seat cover, AC components...... Will I finish it????? (The million dollar question)

Maybe, I think you all know my track record!

Enjoy

NIIIIIIIIIICE!!!!
I wish I had room. I would be driving down this weekend to take you to pizza and chicken to discuss it

Twisted78SS · 11-11-2014, 06:38 PM

I really like it just the way it is from an aesthetics point of view, I say don't spend time on those last few items, Just drive it!! right on up here to the Northwest, I'll finish her up.. maybe, eventually..

wjjeeper · 11-11-2014, 06:52 PM

Very impressive! lol.......

**Ol Blue K20** · 11-12-2014, 09:31 AM

jchav62 · 11-12-2014, 11:41 AM

Yeah I believe it is, a 66' deluxe wheel looks real close to it.

Thanks, looking at cab floors you can tell this truck was kept out of the elements.

shawno72 · 12-19-2014, 10:15 AM

It's cool, but it's got the wrong grill

markeb01 · 12-19-2014, 10:56 AM

Good for you. Once they go away, they don't usually come back. Or they deteriorate so badly you don't want them back. Outstanding!

Yeah, kinda like an old girlfriend.

I really got lucky on this one, one my friends bought it and took care of most of the little bugs and even improved it.

King, Are those wheels red or orange? What was the original color of the truck? What color are you going to paint it?
