any 67-72 that has no rust and hasn't had a pervious owner who blows up the 350 and 3:73 pos. rearend and replaces it with a gutless 4bbl-307 and non-pos rearend.THATS MY DREAM TRUCK!!!!!!!!!!

neonlarry · 03-25-2002, 12:06 AM

If I had the money I would probably build about 10 67-72s, but the first would be a GMC 3/4 ton 4x4 with 1 ton axles and transfer case, a Caddy 500 big block, a TH475 tranny, and about 35 inch tires

Project1970 · 03-25-2002, 12:15 AM

My dream '67-'72:

Take Rick's pickup, convert it to a GMC, put a 4L80E in it, put red taillights back on it, and drop some of the exterior trim...along with Torq-Thrust rims...and change the shade of blue a bit...

Hmm...now that I think about it, I want Rick's truck with my truck's body and a 4L80E. Muahaha. =)

Of course, I'd ideally have a second one as well; that one as my daily driver / street cruiser and then a GMC Jimmy with the '69/'70 grille, disc brakes, a nice lift, same blue color (hehe), a 383 Vortec, and a THM400. Fun off road but I loathe the idea of driving something like that around town.

Then, despite the fact that it's not a '67-'72 GM truck, the third vehicle in my fleet would be my track-day-special, a '67-'73 Camaro (any first gen or an early second) with a twin turbo fuel injected 302 LS6 and the IRS / 6 speed transaxle yanked from a Corvette.

I happen to like the way this one looks, can't remember where i got the picture though:

umm, vortech supercharged 383 (~570hp), 700R4, 3.73 rear, 4-wheel wilwood discs, air ride of course, custom interior (fiberglass center console constructed by yours truly, bucket seats of some sort), blazer doors (for the absence of the pillar, 18" wheels in front, 20" wheels in back, umm i guess that's about it. Still debating on stepside or fleetside though. My dream changes every time I get interested in another truck though!!

lukecp · 03-25-2002, 12:29 PM

Well, it would be my truck with:

Frame off restoration

Repainted original Ochre color, 2-tone with the white stripe and top, clearcoat paint

Lowered 4" front 5" rear

Built 383 SBC with allumium heads, and a supercharger (the kind that sits off to the side of the engine so i dont have to cut a hole in the hood), nitrous also for about 600 HP

4L80E OD tranny, also built to handle the power

18" American Racing Torq-Thrust Wheels

Then i would have a stock body truck, but lowered, with cool wheels, and 600 ponies under the hood

**1971Stepside** · 03-25-2002, 02:11 PM

Since you said money was no object. I always thought it would be cool to have my 71 stepside completely done and have a 71 2WD Blazer and a 71 Shortbed Fleetside that all matched. Meaning same color, features, etc. That would be a rolling car show in itself!

The flipside of the coin would be to find a 71-72 3/4 ton 4WD Long bed that was perfect.

My goal for my 40th birthday (other than having my truck finished) is to find a cherry 69 Z-28 Convertible. SS would be fine, but the plus here is that the wife wants this car as bad as I do.....

Bone stock-68 Short Wide, red with white top or 50th colors, full chrome, Factory 293 or 307 with an OD three-speed column tranny. (327 and 396 could not be had with OD I think.)

CST, factory tach, speed warn, AC, buckets and full wheel covers would be all nice too.

Another great find would be a 68 3/4 ton Longhorn 50th loaded. (Like Longhornmail said)

I am considering some changes for my 2wd Jimmy. Probably just dreaming about it though. It's already bagged and on 20's so that is covered. It is a 71 and I would like a 67-68 hood. It would have an LS-1 and 4L60e and the fire wall would be cleaned up a bit (the firewall is going to happen). Upgrade the brakes a bit. Put the corvette sytle door handles on it and do something about the gas filler neck. The big changes are in the top though. I would graft the rear portion of a surburban top onto it. It would get about a 1.5 to 2 inch chop by laying the windshield post back and the crown in the top would be sectioned a bit. One piece glass in the doors, it would work since the doors would now be from a surburban. Leather interior and a nice but invisible stereo system. Isn't funny how un-trucklike a lot of our dream vehicles are.

Alvin I have personally laid my eyes on the truck you pictured and it is even nicer looking in person. The green and white on it was an awesome color combo.

O'l Buck · 03-26-2002, 02:18 AM

My dream pickup has been a dream since I was about 7 years old. My dad has a 67 3/4 ton 4X4, the first vehicle I ever drove. I fell in love with it and drove it alot when I was growing up on the farm, This poor old truck hasn't had a current liscense plate since 1983 and hasn't seen pavement in about as long. I almost cried when he put a feedwagon box on it and I laughed when the box fell apart. Now it sits on the hill, collecting dust, rust and anything else that my bump into it. I've been trying to buy this thing since I was 15, no luck yet. I'm gonna make a deal with him to let me overhaul the engine in return for him giving me the truck when he doesn't need it anymore(inheritance, you might say). The body is anything but straight, except for the hood and the top of the cab, the interior is very nice, though, seat isn't even ripped. Mark my words, someday I will own that pickup!!!!

(327 and 396 could not be had with OD I think.) CST, factory tach, speed warn, AC, buckets and full wheel covers would be all nice too. Another great find would be a 68 3/4 ton Longhorn 50th loaded.

Cant get webshots to work anymore so here is a link to a truck similar to what mine would be like. http://community.webshots.com/script...ity=lRSENLFVoq ------------------ 1972 Chevrolet C/20 LWB, BB 402, Tach, Bedside Toolbox, Posi, Factory AC, Factory AM/FM [This message has been edited by bgbchevy (edited March 25, 2002).] __________________ 1972 Chevrolet C/20 LWB, BB 402, Tach, Bedside Toolbox, Posi, Factory AC, Factory AM/FM, cruise, Dana 60

It's already bagged and on 20's so that is covered. It is a 71 and I would like a 67-68 hood. It would have an LS-1 and 4L60e and the fire wall would be cleaned up a bit (the firewall is going to happen). Upgrade the brakes a bit. Put the corvette sytle door handles on it and do something about the gas filler neck. The big changes are in the top though. I would graft the rear portion of a surburban top onto it. It would get about a 1.5 to 2 inch chop by laying the windshield post back and the crown in the top would be sectioned a bit. One piece glass in the doors, it would work since the doors would now be from a surburban. Leather interior and a nice but invisible stereo system. Isn't funny how un-trucklike a lot of our dream vehicles are. Alvin I have personally laid my eyes on the truck you pictured and it is even nicer looking in person. The green and white on it was an awesome color combo. __________________ 74 swb 71 2wd Jimmy 82 2wd Blazer

My dad has a 67 3/4 ton 4X4, the first vehicle I ever drove. I fell in love with it and drove it alot when I was growing up on the farm, This poor old truck hasn't had a current liscense plate since 1983 and hasn't seen pavement in about as long. I almost cried when he put a feedwagon box on it and I laughed when the box fell apart. Now it sits on the hill, collecting dust, rust and anything else that my bump into it. I've been trying to buy this thing since I was 15, no luck yet. I'm gonna make a deal with him to let me overhaul the engine in return for him giving me the truck when he doesn't need it anymore(inheritance, you might say). The body is anything but straight, except for the hood and the top of the cab, the interior is very nice, though, seat isn't even ripped. Mark my words, someday I will own that pickup!!!! ------------------ '72 Chevy 1/2T 4x4 shortbox stepside 350/350auto on '84 ralleys and 31/10.5s 67 Cutlass convertible 330, 3spd stick 90 GMC Jimmy 350/auto Chad Stephens Orleans,NE __________________ 67 K-20 350, SM465, Eaton rear, 4.56 no spin option 00 Dodge 2500 4x4, 24V cummins, 5 speed Chad South Central Nebraska
