I have a 65 in pieces, planning to put it on a 79 Blazer 4x4 frame, mostly because I already have it, and it was free! (Don't hate me?) I used to have a different 65 shortbed stepside, but the ex got that in the divorce. This one will be a long term project, still planning and gathering parts, but it'll happen.
Saw a comment about this board somewhere, stopped in to check it out, wandered around lurking for a couple hours and decided there was too much great info and resources here to not join. Hopefully I can help as well as ask questions, we'll see... | | | | | Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 3,750 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 3,750 | Hi Robert, welcome from Scotland.
You'll already be aware there's a sub-forum for you 60s guys.
It's OK we wont 'hate' you, it's your truck,do as you please!
As you mention,share the knowledge,that's what this place is all about!
Good luck with your 65.

Keep getting those parts together and in no time you will be able to start your project.

Great to see another Bolter from Utah. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall | | Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 | Robert, welcome to the Stovebolt. Sounds like a plan to me. Buy up the parts and when you get it all torn apart you'll be ready to put it back together instead of looking at a pile of parts in a corner.
Have a sister-in-law in Mt. Pleasant (southern utah)..are you close??
Good luck, we're here to help. now, some pics when you can. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 4,185 Moderator | | Moderator Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 4,185 | Hi Robert, welcome! Mine is a long term project too, although it's starting to drag a little. Good luck.
