It is a very nicely put together truck and will make somebody very happy.

I wish I was in a position to be able to buy it.

Good luck with the sale.

mcbassin · 10-05-2011, 09:44 PM

Sorry to hear you're selling. It is a super nice truck and priced right too. I started mine as a driver too I hope I don't end up getting too carried away. Good luck with the sale.

I live in the "Los Angeles area", so I worry about it being vandalized or stolen. I have literally been sitting in a restaurant and seen guys looking in my windows, crawling under, and looking to pop the hood. I love having such a cool truck, but it gets major attention for it to be a daily driver.

NOOOOOO! One of the cleanest trucks here, and its a neighbor of all things.... Wish I could have been able to see it in person. Hope it goes into the right hands

full coverage insurance takes care of all of that

Never really heard how the exhaust sounds and how the truck performs. Doing the same engine and tranny conversion. My truck is on air so I have been looking at my options on the exhaust. What size are your exhaust pipes? Don't know if I will try the X pipe or H pipe design.

mcbassin · 12-09-2011, 07:17 PM

Did you end up finding a buyer for the 67?

67C10BUB · 12-09-2011, 09:28 PM

Yup, this truck is sold. I really do miss it already. It was/is a great truck. I hope it is being well taken care of.

The exhaust sounded great!!! It was an H-pipe setup with 2" all the way back. I would highly recommend the Magnaflows.

Dano69c10 · 12-10-2011, 09:56 AM

Hope you will consider another 5.3L project. Something like this http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/cto/2728430344.html Do your 5.3L magic, change to c10 suspension, and fix up the interior and ... Presto! You have your new daily driver.

low69chevy · 12-10-2011, 11:14 AM

That is a good deal. It's still a little too soon for another project, but I'll keep my eyes open in the mean time.

It was a blast to drive. A lot of power, quick throttle response, and smooth revving. I would highly recommend the conversion.

DM Garage · 12-11-2011, 04:56 PM

Any idea what kinda fuel mileage you were getting?

This time just leave the outside ratty looking. Hope to see you again at one of the Legend's Meets soon.

Usually about 20mpg with mixed driving. Not too bad for a 1967 pickup.

I think I will take your advice on the next build. I may stop by. I always enjoyed the guys that attended. I will definitely be at the Brother's show. I still love classic Chevy trucks even if I can't own one right now.

Tillik · 01-25-2014, 01:01 PM

Planning on this exact swap. Great info. Thanks =)

Was the ECM programmed for your injectors. Mine were programmed for flexfuel. I had regular ran lean all the time switched to flexfuel injectors no more lean codes
