I know I have been wanting to bag it for some time now. Probabley start with the PB stage 1 kits to get'er down low, but would really love to just go all out so I can have the low ride height.

Speaking of options I realized I haven't listed all the goodies and options that I've added, so let's see if I can remember.
Chrome bumpers front and rear.
Tach/air pressure dash.
Tilt column.
Am/Fm radio.
Light to the glove box.
Blazer under dash lights.
Complete soft ray glass.
V8 engine.
Posi trac rear end.
Choke delete.
Throttle cable option.
Buddy bucket seats.
"Custom" door badges soon to be "CST" badges.
Front sway bar.
Lfd's 71-72 gas pedal upgrade.
Headlight relay upgrade.
4 core radiator with 4x4'fan shroud since the engine sits in the 6 cyl position.
Locking glove box lock.

That's all I can remember for now.

great options !

shawno72 · 01-14-2013, 12:23 PM

It's taken me over a year to amass all the options. But, well worth it.

So with your positrac rear end does the soon to be CST emblems mean completely sideways truck?

great list of options I'm just about ready to tackle my interior lights in the cab so I can see what the hell I'm doing at night when I get in
