Thanks guys. I only had a few hours to work on the truck this weekend. I did manage to get a couple things done tho. I got the gas pedal done, the steering column mod done and installed, motor and trans bolted together, and I got my heater core installed and the box mounted to the firewall. I was to busy working to take any good pictures but I did manage to snap a few cell phone pictures.
Also had a great time at the Good Guys show. Sold a few parts and made a couple bucks to hopefully either get my seat covered or get paint on the inside of my fenders and bottom of my hood. Here are the couple pictures that I took |
Re: 72 Cheyenne Super First Project
Hey guys, it's been a while since I've been on here. There has been some progress on the truck, just not as much as I would like. Being in college is really proving to be nuisance when it comes to a big expensive project like this. Since I last updated the forum the motor has been installed, we solved the rear end issue, and a little more work on the interior has been done. I will take a million pictures for all of you picture addicts when I get home tonight. If I don't have them uploaded by tomorrow night, feel free to post the dreaded "This Thread Is Worthless Without Pics" comment. Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas, I know I'm ready to get home and see my family.

Re: 72 Cheyenne Super First Project
Alright here's what's goin on in the pictures. The motor is bolted in but we had to make a trans xmember cause someone stole my original one. So the trans is just sitting on a piece of square tubing which is why the motor is tilted back so far. When the xmember is complete it won't look so goofy. Also the wheel that is bolted on the rearend is just a mock up wheel off a super late model. It's only a 16.5 but I wanted to see how far I could get it tucked up there. The way it is shown, the pumpkin is hitting on the bottom of the bed. Also the spindles are off an old cup car but they don't have enough drop in them so there's a good chance those are gonna change.

Re: 72 Cheyenne Super First Project
Thanks guys. I almost finished installing the steering column tonight. I hope to have most of the steering done and possibly be able to start the motor before I head back to school. I'll be home until mid January so I have a little bit of time to work on her. Stay tuned for more pictures of my progress

Here are a few pictures of my recent progress. The first few are a track bar mount that we made. It will bolt directly into the frame and the track bar will run to the left rear of the truck arm

Ran some fuel lines, got a new thermostat housing, and put on belts. As soon as the radiator gets here it should be almost time to start this girl up.

Finally, does anyone have a cap for a steering box that they don't need? I somehow misplaced the one that I had and I need one. Here is a picture of my steering box

Little more progress today. Got my headers in and there were some issues with clearance so I had to take out the motor mounts and cut out the spots that touched and make little channels to fit the headers. I am gonna get the motor mounts re-powder coated when I get the hood hinges and latch coated. Also the track bar and bracket are at the nickel plater along with the U bolts, master cylinder cover, and a few other small things. Making progress slowly but surely :metal:

Last few, you can kinda get the idea. Sorry for the blurry pictures, stupid camera doesn't know what to focus on. I'll take some better ones tomorrow

Re: 72 Cheyenne Super First Project
This is a great project! You have came a really long ways in a very short time frame. It will look better than a new truck when you're done. Subscribed.

Re: 72 Cheyenne Super First Project
Looks like a couple are gonna be close...I'm sure your Dad will help ya but probably add some heat shield/ sheathing to those plugs....also, if you haven't already, maybe add a little anti-seize to those header bolts and spark plugs:D

Re: 72 Cheyenne Super First Project
