It's a ghetto roof vent that was added by a PO at one point. It's coming out soon. The paint isn't original, it looks brushed on

I've been meaning to get an updated pic with the new rims for a while now. I got the rims from board member "MYGMCANDME" and had them blasted, painted and bought new centre caps. This is the pic I should of posted for the current TOTM contest.

Re: pls post pixs of 67-72 Panels
 

I haven't checked in with my Panel Brothers lately. I've been pretty busy all summer with work and haven't had a lot of time for my Panel, except saving money for a drive train. And now I have a shiny new Bowtie Overdrive's 200R and a greasy old 292 and fresh motivation. I get more done in the winter, anyway. I'll be getting that motor tore down and off to the machine shop in the next couple months and hopefully have a clear direction for it's re-build. I really, really want to supercharge it, so I will build it with that in mind. I just need to educate myself on what it's gonna take. I want reliability above all, with power and a heavy dose of cool.

Heres some pics of the 69 i picked up the other day. I got her for $550. Had to trailer her up here on a u-haul. Its got a 350 out of a 71 C-10 and a 3OTT. It runs and drives but doesnt stop. Its also got a bunch of cancer, but cancers fixable. :lol: Heres some pics

Re: pls post pixs of 67-72 Panels
 

hey 79wagon. Welcome to the panel brotherhood and welcome to the board!
I love the potential in your "new" panel....almost looks like mine did a few years back. Have fun send in lots of progress pics.
Rob.

Re: pls post pixs of 67-72 Panels
 

hey Pritch. You have some cool plans there, can't wait to hear about the progress. I'm getting near to winter storage time here and I have a small list of things to accomplish over the winter. Just a lot of small stuff really--like install the new dash pieces I have, fix the leak under the dash that drips on my foot when it rains, finally get the e-brake hooked up and maybe a tie-rod and ball joint replacement.

Anyway it was good to hear your plans-maybe the other guys will pop in for an update. There are a few panels on here I've been wondering about lately.

cheers!

Re: pls post pixs of 67-72 Panels
 

Thanks, Robb. I need/want to have my drivetrain complete by spring. That's the big plan, but like you, I have lots of little details to deal with also. I guess I need to thin down the motor collection some. Now that I have the one I want, I can get rid of some of the others. I have a 2nd gen 350 out of a junked-out boat and a 327 out of a junked-out 'Burb. My friends kid wants the 327 for his '67 Chevelle project, but I'm gonna make him trade me something for it. Maybe a fender or something. I also have a complete, running 230, 2 complete and running 250's, everything but the block for another 250 and a dis-assmbled 292 of questionable worthy-ness.

79Wagon, good to see another panel being saved! Welcome to the club!:metal:

Re: pls post pixs of 67-72 Panels
 

When I see them I save the pics, damn these are RARE! Pre '67 all day long, '67-'72 nope! Anyway... I have some pics of 4wd versions somewhere, I'll see if I can find them. The 3rd and 4th pic are the same vehicle by the way.

Re: pls post pixs of 67-72 Panels
 

SWEET! I want one!!!

How big is the door opening??
Wonder if my Harley would fit????

Re: pls post pixs of 67-72 Panels
 

dont think a harley will fit unless it has drag bars, but even then it might not. i had a 2007 yfz 450 quad and it would not fit in the back of my burb

Re: pls post pixs of 67-72 Panels
 

Man some of you fellows make me fell like Im starting with real gem.Unfortunately there is lots of shoty body work that been done that will have to be cut out and replaced before I can start the fun stuff like custom interior and slight hop up of the Big block. Ive included the only pic I have at present of the truck its 1969 1/2 ton that has only had two previuos owners and granfather was first one and he bought it back from the guy he sold it to. So I guess Im third owner.Anyway its back in the family and ready for seriuos makeover.

Re: pls post pixs of 67-72 Panels
 

Hey! I purchased the 67 panel pictured on the trailor! It is now sitting on a 72 4wd suburban frame with new front clip,new crate engine with new built 700r4, radiator,newly covered bucket seats , new marine plywood floor,new bumpers with bumperettes,tow hooks and new interior so far. From the front fenders back it still has the same body, but a work in progress!
