Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

Got a buddy of mine that has a 67 Stepside...Hee's wanting ideas on what to do with his truck. He says he wants to keep it Old School. I wanted to show him some 67-72 fleet or shortbed step with 15's (white walls or not). Just as long as they Old School...(Traditional)

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

Not all original, but stock height and 15's with white letters.

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

Looks good...keepem comin.

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

My truck can be old school I guess lol.

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

I love that truck ! It's is very sharp. I always liked the 69 grills the best. Mine has a similar stance and wheel and tire combo just not near as shiny

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

Stock height with widend rallys in the back, Sorry not a shortbed

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

Some oldskool styles vary depending on your age bracket....This is mine...mostly stock original GM...with a few minor improving tweaks of course...:chevy:

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

Ha!!! I have to agree with you on that. I "myself" like them dropped, lower in the front...preferrably 15" wheels...NO BIG RIMS...thats just me.

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

...and that's a dam good lookin truck by the way.

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

I love the look of your truck. I would love to see it in person one day.

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

Here is my 72 GMC. I don't know if it's old school, but theres no billet or big wheels.:metal:

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

Rarely pass up an opportunity to show her off

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

That is definately OldSkool with the louvers in the hood...NICE!

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds

Here is one I built back in the 90s.

I kid you not, I called Summit (pre internet days) to order the wheels. The sales guy tried to talk me out of them. He kept saying Cragar SS wheels were old fashioned and no one ever bought them anymore.

Here is one I built about 7 years ago. Then, I ordered the wheels from Summit's website so I didn't have to convince the sales guy I was serious about buying the "old school" wheels.

I was poor when I built this one so I couldn't afford the nicer wheels and had to settle for rallys.

Later I matched the bed patina and went with steelie wheels, again, too broke to buy nice wheels..

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

I think you did one hell of a great job on all these trucks you built, even the last one is kick ass I would love to have that and drive it just as it is there in that last picture. great job.

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

Here's mine 72 swb 15 ion alloy 138!

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

Here is mine, before I lowered it. Hard to see, but its got rallies and 275 60 R15 tires in the rear and 215 70 R 15's in the front.

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

15" steelies and white walls look goooooooood on these trucks. Even better when lowered a bit.

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

Stock, dropped, and ready to rock!

This is a fellow member's truck though I don't have his name. I do love the look.

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds

style rally wheels

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

Old School long bed! Looks like I found it in a BARN! 383 Stroker with a turbo 400 and 70 series tires. Make it safe to drive and then DRIVE IT!!!!

What size wheel, backspacing, tires do you have, and do they tuck in?

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

Ive had some guys that worked at a sunoco station back in the day and said the station had a truck just like mine, I guess you could call it old school.

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

This thread needs a bump! Nice trucks fellas.

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

i like all of them!!!

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

I love your truck Nick! That looks awesome!

here's mine. Sorry I dont have any better pics yet!
15x7 Corvette style 6-lug Rallys with Bullet caps and Bullet lugs, 225/75/15 skinny WW tires - cant decide if they need some hot rod trim rings yet, gotta see the truck outside the garage first...

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

I've always been a "run 'er till she blows" guy. This was when the stock clutch let go and 2 days before the 12" Centerforce went it. 15 Corvette ralleys. I like this pic because it shows just how skinny the tires are on the back! :metal:

Looks "old school" to me right down to the hilborn scoop!

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

SG,
If you click on my title you can check out my album and the specs are at the top... it's a little tricky as I have disc brakes, aftermarket upper A-arms to correct castor etc.. and I wouldn't want to steer you wrong.
That being said, I have 255/60 & 275/60/15s; 8in front & 10in rear with 4in backspace on all (narrow rear end). No problems with clearances and I think it rides better than stock.

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

heres mine.......

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

cool truck man!

Re: Old school 67-72 shortbeds
 

Newbiearear is that a 70 grill with 67/68 hood..I like the look
heres my old school...and soon to be repowered with &^$^%$**#......
