Personally I think that a force is telling you to change something, and at this point I believe it is your rear bumper. Maybe the 67-72 truck gods noticed a flaw in your rear bumper and this is thier way of telling you that you needed to change it... who knows???

All kidding aside, yuck, that sucks. (I look at accidents differently than most people, I see money where they see headache. ) I love the truck and the color is a perfect match. I hope to see more more pics of it as you finish the details. Someday maybe our trucks will be sitting side by side in a car show and I would hate for mine to be outshown by such a beautiful truck!

BTW, I love your blue interior, esp the carpet. That is a color that is VERY hard to bring together correctly for the interior. (kind of like red... yuck, I can't stand red interior, no matter what the outside looks like. Might as well put in orange carpet and paint the truck bright green.... (shudder)) Most would have opted for grey or black interior. Love it.

Later, D
Thanks for the props.

I need to update this! The bumper was long ago replaced, it has vintage air now, and the interior is done!

OH! and the top is white!
