Lookin' good, but man you should have put a dash pad on it while you had the dash apart. It's a pain in the butt with the cluster, heater controls, and glove box in it.... Just sayin'.

Re: my build 1967

Ive got planned to do a 3/5 drop. Ive also found some k5 blazer seats for the interior.flat black paint white accents. The motor has been built 350 with a turbo 350. Slow going every time I pull something off I find some other thing to fix. The rockers inside and out have been replaced and the doors have had the bottoms replaced. New door seals replaced and now you have to slamm shut.

Re: my build 1967

Ordered from CPP. They were a chore getting the old off. I replaced the front bolts as you can see.

Re: my build 1967

I was kind of leery of dropping mine 5” so I bought some 3’ lowering springs.
However looking at yours 5” is just about right.
Nice work,

Re: my build 1967

Jst a few shots I left out. I sand blasted the cross member and used por15 on it. I was impressed with how easy it was to use this product.

Re: my build 1967

I had a pretty good weekend the rain finally quit. I tore down the front end and replaced the ball joints on the bottom control arms with moog ball joints. I used a 1972 c10 cross member and when I went back together I found the hard way the ball joints were too long and the brake line is routted to the front of the cross member. After replacing the ball joints I switched the back plated from right to left and took the wheel cylinders and swapped those from side to side making the brake line exit to the front of the spindle alowing the brake line to mount on the bracket. While doing this I rebuilt the wheel cylinders and replaced th brake pads. Replace the seals and bearings on both sides. Sanded all down and coated all in chassis paint.
