If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

So we all say if we had more money we would.......
Well if I got alot of cash I would cut the roof off, and bag it baby$$$$$ Just Like The Photo$$$
So what would you do ???

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

Paint & body, a nice portable garage, telescope steering and a custom interior.

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

Just try to finish it!!

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

That's like a BAZILLION dollar question. I have no idea if I had tons of cash to dump into my truck. Where to start! Where to start!!

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

That's a long list on mine. Paint and body to make it look nice. I'd swap the stepside bed for a fleetside, and do a 2/4 drop with disc brakes. Powertrain wise, I'd keep the hot rodded 6 it has, just to be different, but get it running right, most likely with something along the lines of a FAST fuel injection setup, and back it with a tremec 5 spd.

I would give it all to Nate at poterbuilt. Probably a little to intro for some billets and a 6.2 from gm

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

I'd a custom black and blue interior, get a new tailgate, get all my body work done and get it painted up nice. And put a 6.2L supercharged motor in it(like whats in the Cadillac CTS-V). And do a BIG brake kit on it.

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

I would continue down the road I am now: I would get it to the point I want to anyway, which is roadworthy and reliable. I would continue to stock up on OEM parts. THEN I'd get a trailer and haul all those parts behind me (driving the truck myself) on back roads over to Vegas and Count's Kustoms for a complete down to the last bolt frame-off. I'd also have the rear end changed to 3:73 gears and I might even go for a 283 or 327. I might even have AC put in. I'd get the front and rear cameras I want also. Then I'd drive it back home!

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

Since my goal is to turn the '68 into a reliable driver and use it as a truck, no changes no matter what the budget allowed. I've already acquired disc brake parts and an overdrive tranny. As soon as I locate the engine I want, I'll pull the truck off the road, do engine/tranny/brakes all at once. Then I'll freshen up the paint, and haul things in the bed, and tow trailers.

I have no interest in a show truck. I'd rather drive it than let it sit while people gawk at it.

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

I would do a concourse resto and then drive it old again. Just like Jay:)

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

Paint and body, modern 3/4 ton drive train front to rear, discs on all four corners. Heavy duty bumpers front and back. Make it a stump pulling beast.

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

I'd probably end up with 24 projects, and not be able finish any of them!

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

paint and bodywork

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

LS9 and make it handle like a vette

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

Twin turbo LS.

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

Have it blasted or dipped down to bare metal, body work & Paint. Not much :lol:

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

I would buy a hot broad for the passenger's seat.

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

I'd buy a lot more of them.

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

Just pay for some body to do the work that want done.that concrete floor is a long way down.and it feels even longer on the way back up.SUCKs TO GET OLD

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

Build a garage for the one I have, then buy a short wide 4x4 and put 3/4, 1 ton drivetrain under it.

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

Build my shop and do a body off resto-mod. Restore all the factory options. Level the suspension, 450hp 350, built TH350 behind it, original colors with matte pearl clear, and redo the interior to match the 601 code, but all in leather with modern goodies, like heated seats.

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

Sell mine and buy an all original short wide bed 67 or 68 with patina and swap my drivetrain into it. Oh... and a turbo.

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

I would dip mine in chrome and have it rhinestone encrusted.

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

Nice strong N/A LS conversion. And a Posi.

Re: If you had the money what would you do to your truck?
 

Everything I plan to do... just faster...lol
