67-72 short box 4x4 trucks... lets see pics - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

blackscout · 11-10-2008, 02:15 AM

Where I come from these are rare. rarer still are fleetside shortys. Can we start a thread with the members owning these fine rigs putting up pics? I am instigating this because I am just about to build a '69 short box fleetside 4x4. I have looked around and they seem to be scattered about with Bad4x4 owning the finest example I have ever seen. I would love to see some of the other members trucks. I really need some inspiration. My frame was just trailered in from Vancouver tonight and I saw it in the dark...... I can say it looks like I am going to be looking for another frame.... but in the mean time I am going to start the build with what I have. I will start another thread to share that build with those that are interested (pretty hard to compare after seeing Bad4x4 built). let's see those short 4xs

Wreckless_71 · 11-10-2008, 03:33 AM

Someday...

usdabeef · 11-11-2008, 09:32 PM

Here's mine. I really like Trevor's as well. Nice color combo and looks very clean.

jrdv · 11-12-2008, 01:41 PM

1969 GMC with a 4" lift. The last picture is what the truck looked like when I bought it.

vtblazer · 11-13-2008, 06:04 PM

Mines a 1970 SWB 4x4, only 2500 made that year.
54K original miles, intact factory drive-train.

Pics range from when I looked at it, when I brought it home and in it's current state of restoration.

All body work is done, just needs paint and assembly but it's taking freakin' forever.

blackscout · 11-13-2008, 11:45 PM

Awesome trucks guys thanks for the posts. I will take Pics of the frame I got. I think It is too far gone. The good news is I found a complete 72 the only thing missing is the bed! Now to get it home.

msgross · 11-13-2008, 11:51 PM

1 of 1400 here... 68 SWB fleet K-10 bought off original owner...

72BlckButy · 11-13-2008, 11:54 PM

Trevor that is a sweet looking truck!

blackscout · 11-14-2008, 02:18 AM

Mike,

What is the primer/ protector you used on the cab? is that the original cab? I look at your post and I can see the future.

msgross · 11-14-2008, 07:38 PM

If your talking about mine then I had it blasted, and primed it in Southern Poly Inc Epoxy Primer (SPI). Bought it online and they shipped it for free. $140 for 2 sprayable gallons. Very nice protection and seals very nice. The floor and bed are new and coated with the Taiwan EDP primer.

Check out my build thread for 2 1/2 years of pure fun...

blackscout · 11-23-2008, 03:46 AM

nice work mike. looks like you got a real nice truck there. I found a complete 69 swb 4x4 running and driving good in decent shape for $2000. The only catch is its 500 miles away. I am trying to make it happen.

62 short step · 11-23-2008, 10:47 AM

Some fine trucks guys!

**Ron 586** · 11-23-2008, 11:02 AM

Here's a few pics of my 70 short fleet. I know, I know, it has a 71/72 front cap but that's the way I bought it.

I'm new to the 4 X 4 scene but been on the board for about 3 years. Have decided I'm not going broke fast enough with regular trucks so will try these.

72freak · 11-23-2008, 11:55 AM

Here is mine........not original but fairly nice.

Batman · 01-05-2009, 02:20 PM

Sorry I'm pretty late to the party. But here's a '72 Shortbox.

**special-K** · 01-05-2009, 02:58 PM

A nice one to be hiding.Thanks for sharing.I didn`t want to show anybody up,but:

Bad4wd · 01-06-2009, 09:25 PM

Bought this '71 back in '97 and can't wait to finish the rebuild...

meansting04 · 01-11-2009, 12:09 PM

These all look great. Alot of pics of them on trailors though. Got any of them in the mud. That would be awsome.

blackscout · 01-11-2009, 05:56 PM

Nice shortbox's Tim. I trade you for a studebaker anytime. especially for the light blue 67. that is a sweet truck. Man that is a sweet truck . I just went back and looked at it. it has 3/4 ton gear! do you know anything about that truck? When I dream, I dream that I am driving that truck.

**special-K** · 01-11-2009, 11:51 PM

It`s nice,huh?I don`t know where I got the picture.I saved that a good while back.It may be a member`s.
