Hey,

I'm thinking of just removing my rear bumper on my 64 Fleetside and leaving it off.

See as many pics as possible would be cool.. And let me know if you did anything to the rear like a cover or something..

Thanks,
Elias

I would recommend a roll pan, although i have not yet done one. I was planning on doing one since they are cheaper to buy then getting a chrome bumper and the bolt up hardware. Mine at the moment has nothing back there, but its up against the garage wall and it doesnt run, so sry, i got no pics......

My brother's 64 with no bumper, and a nice 62 with a roll pan. I'd go for the pan...

Here's where I found the 62 btw... http://www.customclassictrucks.com/featuredvehicles/0606cct_1962_chevy_pickup_shortbed/photo_08.html

Very Cool... I'm liking the Roll Pan...

I think I'll take off the bumper until I can afford a roll pan...

Elias

I'm doing the roll pan on my 65 right now , have to do some weld on the side to connect to the sides,


good luck

I believe the color was quoted as Bahama Blue. I have the mag and i'll check for you. I saw that truck in person at Pleasanton Good Guys last year and its even nicer in the flesh

Thanks. I usually go to Goodguys in Pleasanton, but missed last year's.

these picture make me sad nowing my great grandfather 65 short bed fleet is sitting out side at the farm it so bad the axel has rusted off the frame. Funny thing is tho the body panels are rust free

Thanks. I usually go to Goodguys in Pleasanton, but missed last year's.

The mag is the June 2006 Custom Classic trucks and the article quotes the color as DuPont Bahaman Blue. Without a paint code I'm not sure how much use that is....

Good enough, thanks for looking.

Man, How 'bout a blue tarp????

red with some kinda design on it in black and white

black primer should do the trick

Here's mine with no bumper or pan.

Love that diff cover!!:metal:

WOW.. I'm surprised that this thread came back to life. I've been out of the loop for a few months because I couldn't afford to drive my truck at 10mpg.

Thanks for all the pics. I ended up taking off the bumper sometime in March.

Now it's time to fix the door DENTS and paint it... Oh yeah and tires...

btw - I love knowing how gas I have in the truck after replacing the fuel sending unit. Now, I just dream of filling it up...
