Re: '69 SWB | Zoie Jane

If you have rack notches in your frame, you should be ok with 2 joints. It's the version 7 with the lowered rack that drives 3 joints, typically. Looking good!

I've got the notches so I should be good to go. Thank you for the tip! If I hurry up and get my firewall finished I could set the cab back on the frame and get the steering hooked up. Then I can sit in my truck and pretend I'm driving it

^^^ You'd better blow those pictures up and print them poster sized. They're going to be priceless. Hang them in you office, shop and anywhere else you can. They will be grown and think working on cars isn't cool. . My girls are 27 and 19...& have outgrown my obsession with old cars.

They are 3 and 5. It is crazy how fast time goes by. Seems like my oldest was just born yesterday.

They both say they can't wait to ride in the truck once it is finished.

Re: '69 SWB | Zoie Jane

Is there anyone on the forum that would cut down a 69 steering wheel and paint it 507 light blue for me?

Re: '69 SWB | Zoie Jane

Got my fuel lines ran and started hooking up my elevel ride height sensors.

It takes a lot longer to hook them up than I expected. I hooked them up to the upper control arms so they are tucked in nice and neat.

Something along these lines. Kyle has some talent, I'm hoping mine will look at least half as good as his.
