Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks

Yeah i seen the headliner, but i heard the speakers on it arent so good. Yeah under the seat might be a good spot, i dont have a ratio yet, i want it to look good but not dropped enough to grind on the floor or bumps.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks

I find that four inches in the front and six inches in the back looks about right.

Maybe if you move the gas tank behind the rear axle, you could put speakers behind the seat. It would definitely remove the terrible gas smell in the cab.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks

So you're truck has three gas tanks? Are you planning to do a frame off restoration? If so, I'd tank the other two tanks off of the frame. The whole point of having more than one gas tank was to extend the amount of time that could be traveled without filling up. If this truck won't be a work truck, then three gas tanks is impractical.

Is your 350 small block or big block?

What options did you truck come with?

Cool combo. The next car I do will be a 1934ish Chevy Standard 2 Door Coach. I really like the old '30s Chevys.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks

Hi all. I'm new to the forum. Here's some pics of my work in progress, a 1969 Chevy step side. So far I've chopped the top, shaved everything, and lowered it slightly. I'm looking forward to searching the posts, and getting more ideas for the build.
