My new truck!
« on: February 08, 2009, 12:38:31 pm »
Like I need another one! Shortened 84 Chassis, 66 body. 350, TH 400, NP 208. Trans is cooked.
Pretty rusty, but was free! $60 ramp truck it to my house.

I'm jealous I tried to get a 66 but it didnt pan out. I did end up with a 94 chevy extended cab z71 though but its too modern

This is my fourth one of this gen. I had a 63 years ago. I 6 with a 3 spd. Had a 66 long bed step side, mounted on a 78 chassis but they didn't shorten it!!! The best one was a 64 C20 step side, 283, TH 350. I wish I still had that truck. I put HEI in, Block hugger headers, 3" exhaust back to 45 degrees, and out in front of the rear wheels. No mufflers. She sounded swweeet!

Looks can be deceiving. Floor is pretty hurt.  Hood has rust holes through the top of it in a bunch of places. Bed is pretty rough too.
