August 1964 to April 2009, almost 45 years, I think the truck was delivered end of Jan 1964.
Go to see that the same family kept the truck for 45 years. The truck looks good for being 45-just middleage.

Love the nitrous in the box. Great way to hide it. You add a remote bottle opener and you have some good medicine for those Chebies, lol. Thinking of adding a little insurance on my truck once I'm further along. Some electric exhaust dumps would be awesome as well.
Thanks for the pics

You know I've never pulled the numbers to see what the orginal color was called. Always just called it blue and white, lol. I'll look at the door codes tomorrow.

Until I saw this picture of your Stylside Custom Cab I was not going to restore mine. I have a carbon copy of your truck and your picture motivated me to restore mine. Thats a grate looking truck.
Great thread & great trucks guys. We just got the engine back in my UNI after replacing a trans seal and detailing the engine and engine house. Hope to get the new picks in my gallery soon. Please check out the old ones and tell me what ya think.

Wow, am I blown away with this thread and the collection of these classic treasures, appears you have your fair share. The 62 unibody looks great; just curious, not being familiar with the 62 unibody, the pic of the interior, is that the cab light, if so, was it standard, I like it. Also, have a styleside with tie downs along exterior of the bed and sometimes find them useless, the chrome rails look cool. Anyhow, great looking ride, imagine it's a conversation piece among the locals.

The interior lights as with the peddles are LTD & Caddy. (Numberdummies input here) The bed rails are from the top of a dodge Polaris wagon. Hope to change the steering wheel to LTD or T-Bird soon. Originally it was Black with an I6 and a 4 speed. I am trying to put the new pic's in the Gallery. While we had the FE out we worked the heads over and added an electronic ignition. Thanks for looking at it. And yes it is a blast to watch folks trip over the side walk when she drives bye. But there are a lot of trucks on here that will do that.
