'67 Shortie 690 hp! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

stllookn · 08-05-2002, 01:15 AM

I have posted pictures of this truck before but I figured since Craig put a new motor in it...it was worth another look.

stllookn · 08-05-2002, 01:17 AM

420 Small block, supercharged and dynoed at 690 hp and 700 ft-lb. Small traction problem.

stllookn · 08-05-2002, 01:20 AM

Here's the interior just for kicks. This truck is just incredible. Top chop is 1 inch in front and 3/4 inch rear. Smoothed. Bags all four corners with custom tube frame front end.

PushinPebbles · 08-05-2002, 02:03 AM

ill get the someday

**68SWB4x4** · 08-05-2002, 02:07 AM

id die for that truck.......

71Blazer · 08-05-2002, 02:16 AM

Detail is incredible! I like the fact that the flames carry over into the engine compartment and interior. Top shelf no doubt.

I've got a Holley carbed 400 bored 60 over that gets up and goes, but that supercharger must put one hell of a kick into that 420. What did he start with?

Patrick Sullivan · 08-05-2002, 09:04 AM

I would be interested in the details of that engine. I'm starting a build-up of my own, and I'd like to end up with something like that.. (though probably not THAT hot, I'll bet he's running straight race gas in that thing..)

Protrucks · 08-05-2002, 09:18 AM

Any Idea what the seats came out of??

stllookn · 08-05-2002, 01:31 PM

I'm going to call Craig tonight and email him the website so that he can get on board here and let you know all he has done. I have admired this truck since it was finished about 1.5 years ago. He does a lot of local shows with it and drives it everywhere. I think he has done N. California shows too. It is a beautiful piece of work. I would be happy with the old 406 sb that came out of this truck! It had all the goodies and was beautiful as well...just had a carb though...LOL!

Bamm · 08-05-2002, 01:58 PM

Just had a carb!!!LOL, poor guy......Very nice ride, those tribal flames are sweet too, I also would like to know what those seats came out of.........JB

Bamm · 08-05-2002, 02:00 PM

See if you can get a dash board shot, looks like some flames on there as well, would like to see those.........JB

stllookn · 08-05-2002, 02:18 PM

See if this works. It has the same flame scheme everywhere.

stllookn · 08-05-2002, 02:23 PM

Here's one of my favorites...the gas filler...nice work!

Bamm · 08-05-2002, 02:25 PM

Now that is a nice gas tank filler mod. Very custom, very nice........Seats????.......................JB

stllookn · 08-05-2002, 02:35 PM

I don't know about the seats but will email this post to Craig to see what he says.

OH NO!!! It can't be.....he cut his dash!

Smooth68 · 08-05-2002, 03:10 PM

I like this angle - it shows the top and stance better. A sweet truck!

stllookn · 08-05-2002, 04:35 PM

Tailgate with flame theme.

stllookn · 08-05-2002, 08:02 PM

If it's going to end up looking anything like this...he cut my dash anytime he wants...LOL! Some guys might object but I don't want a stocker for my Friday night cruiser.

**68SWB4x4** · 08-05-2002, 08:21 PM

i think prostrt was joking

stllookn · 08-06-2002, 02:18 AM

68SW4X4...point well taken...jeez some guys are sensitive...LMAO!

Smooth68 · 08-06-2002, 09:53 AM

Yes guys....just kidding.

Hotrodhenryj · 08-06-2002, 10:45 AM

Who is that ghostly figure riding in the back? Anyone else see him? Weird

Chris H · 08-06-2002, 11:11 AM

Isn't that Private Andrew Malone ???

Smooth68 · 08-06-2002, 01:12 PM

Maybe the previous owner in an earlier life?
