The beginning of the unnamed 64 build
 

Hey guys, found this site, and thought I would post up. Lots of great builds and info here. Long story short, got this truck for 800 bucks from my father in law. Sat 5 years, has a 350 with 700r4. Went out and got it running in no time. Still runs like a champ with only problem so far being a header leak, from a warped header on the driver side. Haven't decided what route to go, but rat rod seems to be at the top of my options.

Oh yeah, it's gonna stay a schlong bed. Between this and finding a new house, I have a full plate. Hope I can find a house with a shop or big garage.

Looks like a good truck to work with.

I'm about 30 miles east of Dallas
Probably not, it's completely hidden from view of the road.
Thanks, Only one very workable dent on the driver side bed, lower half.

Sweet...:metal:

Re: The beginning of the unnamed 64 build
 

Nice job dude. It looks like a whole different truck.

Re: The beginning of the unnamed 64 build
 

I agree. It's rattle can satin black for now. I just think these long beds look good in satin black, and leaving the white stripe and top set it off. I had thought about going all black, but when I pulled the tape off, it just looked right. Gotta polish up the chrome now to make it shine and order some white letter for the tailgate.

Re: The beginning of the unnamed 64 build
 

I may need to set an appointment up to have a custom name given to my truck.
Still haven't come up with one.:burnout:

Re: The beginning of the unnamed 64 build
 

haha, cool! I used to have the same exact triple gauge set in my truck in the same spot, and a damn similar tach, lol!

good luck!
