Hi, newbie here with a '65 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Malibob · 09-10-2009, 09:08 PM

Hey guys, I got a '65 I have been playing with for a while now. When I got it, from GA it was just an old bare bones farm truck. Now it is a bare bones truck with air ride. Here are some pictures.

Seems to be a strong motor. Shifter locks up every once in a while though. That can be a pain.

Hilandr451 · 09-14-2009, 11:42 AM

Welcome! from Northern California - seems we have the same color scheme, for now...
