Hello all! I'm new here but not to hot rods. I recently bought this 1967 step side with a 250 straight 6 and three on the tree. I drove it for about 3 weeks before the build started. First I ordered a power disc brake set from POL. I decided to go with 5 lug so i also ordered a rear axle kit from speedway. Since I would be in the rear end I replaced the open carrier with a Eaton unit and fresh bearings. I left the original 3:73 gears. I also ordered a CPP 5" rear lowering kit. I just got my upper and lower A arms back from powder coating and since they look so good I've decided to have the frame coated as well. So now I have to strip it down so I can get it to them next week. I also ordered a fuel tank from Boyd out of Florida. Now on to the pics.
