Your working fast Boat,looking good
That does look like the relocated original
Not sure if the shortbeds were setup the same or not,but my longbed has a separate crossmember for the E brake(behind the trans member)

I really like your use of a engine hoist and wood frame to remove the cab. :metal: Great idea which I will steal when it comes time for my project.

I seen this engine hoist design on this sight but added two extra bars, works great.

the panhard bar came with the bottom mount and a spacer for the other side, the top mount is stock, i had to cut the bracket off the axle to make it work

Nice build you've got going. What headers are you running?

boat 11-28-2010 02:26 PM

Re: 63 rebuild
 
Headers are made by Mr gasket, and coated with VHT

Looks real nice. Wouldn't it be great if it always stayed that clean? Any details on the engine? :ito:

loving this build! i'll be keeping a close eye on it. 63 short fleet is one of my all time favorite trucks.

Re: 63 rebuild
 
Pretty engine you got there. One thing you ought to do with the headers is use a torch and heat treat the paint and use alot coats of the paint so it'll last a long time. Just my .02

The truck looks really good man!
