No, The police around here don't mind though. I've got a rear tag mounted on a flip down bracket on the roll pan and a front bumper now. I'll post some new pics next weekend.

Well the weather did not coperate with me this weekend and we had another ice storm, so no working outside, which means I can't mount my sway bar and take it for a drive. But I was bored so I cut up my steering wheel. (It used to have three holes in each spoke.)

kyull67 · 01-13-2007, 02:54 PM

I also put on Cadillac Deville press-on weatherstripping. They don't cover the rocker area but I like them because they have the felt on the inside.

Sam59 · 01-13-2007, 03:14 PM

thanks man..i like those exhaust tips coming out of the rollpan! pretty badass!

CAL 58 GMC · 01-13-2007, 03:44 PM

Your roll pan/exhaust looks cool!

Thanks guys. I've always liked the 55-59 trucks, I almost bought one before I got the 67.

gangforward · 01-13-2007, 07:08 PM

Look's GR8!

kyull67 · 03-22-2007, 09:12 PM

I got some time to actually work on the truck some more. I put on all the chrome and the sway bar, definetly a good way to spend $50 but people looked at me strange while blasting around corners while testing it out.

I plan on moving it to my new house this weekend and then paint it by May.

Bamm · 03-22-2007, 09:44 PM

Lookin' good. What color are you planning on painting it?

faribran · 03-22-2007, 09:53 PM

have you changed out the front brakes.... maybe changed to disc brakes?

*alschevy* · 03-22-2007, 09:54 PM

thats a very nice 67 truck

Yeah... supermodel ass.

Morgsie · 03-23-2007, 12:22 AM

Hah, have you actually looked at that picture? The whole thing is an over spray. Paint on the rad hose, ground cable on the alt, LH vavle cover, wiring, brake lines, need I go on? Looks like he missed part of the motor mount and a whack on the steering shaft. If you're gonna paint everything, why miss a bunch? And where do you think he got the paint? Wally world? Let's not forget to top it off with cheesy edelbrock valve covers and air cleaner (more velveeta please!). I'd rather see the engine compartment how it was before he started than like THAT. If you're going to paint, why not take a day and remove stuff that doesn't need to be painted? I don't understand how people can praise someone that "got er done" in 30 minutes with a spray bomb and a 6 pack of beer.

REMEMBER KIDS: Drinking does not equal mechanicing and where a respirator when you paint.

Pl4yboy · 03-23-2007, 12:30 AM

I was talking about the motor... not the paint.

Morgsie · 03-23-2007, 12:34 AM

I'd have to disagree with you there aswell.

That'd be the PO on that one. Notice the sweet interior paint also?

Thanks for the input though?

panhandler62 · 03-23-2007, 12:33 PM

It looks nice. It ain't perfect but then perfect would leave no room for fun.

Rollie396 · 03-23-2007, 12:35 PM

That is one sweet ride!I love the look of the '67 front end with fresh chrome.
Are the bags in the plan for the near future?

btw,thanks for handling the above bs with class.

Thanks. The bags are in the not so near future. I need to get it painted before more people make fun of it.

And that's about all my budget will allow right now.

krue · 03-23-2007, 12:45 PM

Morgsie, Chill out dude, if you don't like it, move on. This ain't a site where we flame people who do things we don't like, if you don't like it, say it, then move on. Just a friendly warning.

Blue'72 · 03-23-2007, 12:51 PM

It looks good to me! It's on its way to being a REALLY nice truck! Well, already is if you ask me.

Joe67 · 03-23-2007, 12:57 PM

No idea how I missed this one - Nice truck you are working on there

I love the chrome front end treatment

panhandler62 · 03-23-2007, 01:06 PM

I know how budget goes... it would be nice to rent a shop and put every dream mod in I can thnk of.. but for right now... I'll settle for planning... lol

kyull67 · 03-23-2007, 02:52 PM

I finally figured out how I want to do the gauges. I wont be able to finish it for a few weeks, but the tubes will be glassed over.
I'll probably use the Autometer antique white gauges also.

btw, thanks for all the positive comments. I'll see you at the board meet with the finished product.
