combatmp29r 27 #4 Posted January 12, 2008 Very nice truck. I'm a big chevy fan and prefer the 73-87 body style I still have a 74 1ton with a 9' dump flat on it. I restored it about 10 years ago. still solid, but more of a pastel yellow now instead of canary :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rollerman 290 #8 Posted January 12, 2008 Thats an extremely nice looking Chevy...& I'm a Ford man! I've always liked that body style in the GM trucks. Can't go wrong with the color either. Okay doing an edit here since you were not finished loading pics... Looks better with the lift, & your 2 wheel drive looks nice & clean also :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,507 #9 Posted January 12, 2008 Very nice looking trucks. I'm not into lowered trucks, but yours looks nice. I really like the red 4WD you got. Very nice. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nylyon-(Admin) 7,294 #10 Posted January 12, 2008 My dad had a trucking company and our first pickup was a 1973 C-10 with a 307. In 74 we had to replace both doors because they rotted out, but we stuck over a ton of sheet metal in the bed of that truck, tons of truck tires, generally abused it but it kept right on going. Couldn't kill that little 307. Was never into Chevy's but I have to admit that was one tough little pickup (except the rust) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,131 #11 Posted January 12, 2008 Here's a link to a good picture of my friend's Chevy pick-up.

chevelletown 37 #12 Posted January 13, 2008 Great truck guys I don't have any Wheel horse pics I can post yet, but here is a pic of my chevy truck I restored. It has air ride suspension......maybe I can try it on a Wheel Horse Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rollerman 290 #13 Posted January 13, 2008 HOLLY COW that truck is nice. Are the side pipes functional? Really nice work there Chevelletown...can't wait to see what you do to a tractor! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,131 #14 Posted January 13, 2008 Brings back really good memories of all those COOL Hot Wheels cars and trucks I used to have. Extremely beautiful truck ! ! ! ! ! :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chevelletown 37 #15 Posted January 13, 2008 Thanks guys! I can't wait to get my hands on a Wheel Horse. I've been restoring cars all my life and I'm ready to try something new. I'll post some of my other work when I can find the pics. <_< Yes, Stephen all 96" inches of them are real and they sound spectacular but, I can't see side pipes on a Horse.

I like the trucks...pretty sharp...but I like the FEL/horse even better! :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C-Series14 15 #21 Posted January 18, 2008 Thanks...That FEL has been the one attachment that has done more than I could ever think it would do. It was a basket case when I got it, and there is a story about it. I will post the story in the attachments section... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rollerman 290 #23 Posted January 20, 2008 Ken are these 3 all part of your collection? Funny your friend was talking about vintage military vehicles & all. I didn't even think to mention I used to have a 64 Chevelle...nothing fancy. Had 3 on the column & a straight 6 for an engine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
