"Project 64"

Well guys you know I've been on the site for a little while now, and have got to know a lot of yall. I have been lazy and haven't done a build thread. So I guess I'm going to start one now.

I bought the truck back in 04 from a good friend of mine. He had it for a while, he bagged it, swaped the 283 to a 350/T350. Bagged the rear on trailing arms. Swaped the bench for buckets out of a burb. Well i guess it's time for pics.

Re: My 64 build.

some more pics, I didn't do the notch, my buddy did when he owned the truck. It's some C channel that wasn't welded good at all. After I took the bed off I saw that the frame was stress cracked at the notch and was only held on but like a inch of metal per side.

I was wondering if you ever would start a build thread. Nice to see it.

Re: My 64 build.

Well on to the back for some work. I decided to do a back half, I'm going to change it up a little from the way it sits now, but you get the idea. This is the way the truck has been sitting for a couple months now. It's at my dads shop in East Texas and I'm 4 hours away.

There is a lot that I dont have pics for and I wish that I did. The front of the frame was sandblasted and put in PD90 till I could do the back half of the truck.

I haven't done any body work and I wont until I get the frame done how I want it and 4 linked in the back. I still need to run brake lines and mount my fuel cell.

Re: My 64 build.

I know Alan I've just havne't got around to it. And that I haven't worked on the truck in months I didn't feel like posting since I wont be working on it much. I need to get the cab up here so I can start patching some of the metal.

Re: "Project 64"

I am getting some brackets cut out for my 4 link though. We have a CNC at work so I'm getting them done for free.

Free is just the right price. If I had a cnc machine here at work, I'd go crazy with it.

Crossmember kit looks nice. I ordered the same kit plus the rear kit but it hasn't arrived yet.

Looking good! Keep us posted.

Re: "Project 64"

You will really like the front kit, Which one did you get the 47 or 51? I wish I had the money for the rear kit but I just dont!

Re: "Project 64"

I got the 51. I didn't get the powdercoating though. I might call them tomorrow and see if it's too late to add it.

I will end up having to get different motor mounts made because of my 305 V6.

Re: "Project 64"

How long ago did you order the kit, I took Jason over 2 months to do mine, but I told him not to rush since I was in Iraq. You should be able to have to get it done.

You bought enough to keep you busy for a while. Or do you have most of it done already?
