Thanks guys! :chevy:

Re: project 62
 

Very nice build. Keep up the good work and pics...:metal:

Re: project 62
 

Dam. How did I miss this build thread? I've been waiting to see more of that truck. Good work man. I'd like to see you, me and the cracka with finished trucks at the same place and the same time. So what do you think, this year?

Re: project 62
 

Nice job.......you had mentioned stuff in progress on a few threads and its nice to see what you have done. The frame is a big undertaking; the stance is killer so worth the effort IMO.

Re: project 62
 

:lol:, Thanks dude! Ya that would be sweet to go cruising!! :metal:
Well after Christmas and first of year is over id like to hit it pretty hard again. Whats most time consuming is the frame and body work, other than that i have "most" everything for it, all seals, power windows, wiring harness and most engine parts already machined, i could go on but not sure what i really have for it new but the wife is getting tired of looking at it all in the computer room :lol:

You need to get with ol cracka and swing by sometime.

Re: project 62
 

Well thank you sir ;)

Re: project 62
 

She is looking good Bud! Can't wait to see her done. Keep those pictures comming! What's your plans on Inner Fender Wells?

Re: project 62
 

Thanks man! I cant wait either ;)

No inner fenders it has a tilt frontend.
You are meaning the front right.?

Re: project 62
 

by this year, I hope you are talking '09:lol:
we just started tearing the '66 down last night, hope to have it ready to cruise by spring

Re: project 62
 

:lol: Uh yes sir unless i hit a wall like with this belt it will be '10 :devil:
Thats cool what have you staring tearing down?

Re: project 62
 

pulling everything out of the cab that will un-bolt.
pulled the windshield and back glass. I'm going to pull out the dash and either fix it or replace it. Sand and paint the inside of the cab after some new pans, rockers and cab corners. plans are to pull the front clip, doors and bed. clean up the firewall and the frame, install vintage air, get the engine compartment cleaned up and painted. pull the engine and repaint and re-seal, install the 700R4, new wiring, ect, ect, ect.
kinda thinking that going this far might as well pull the cab and paint/powder coat the frame while we are at it.......i'm sure it will snow ball :lol:
oh yeah, gonna buy/build a rear gas tank also......

Re: project 62
 

Sweet!! :metal: sounds like a plan, lemme know if you need some help. I do know someone that has a paintgun ;)

And your hoping by spring or is that the do or die date? :lol:

Re: project 62
 

Yea thats what I ment. I'm hopeing to be done in spring or at least before Mr. Davidson starts calling my name again. My front windshield is being a pain in the a$$. Gonna try a differeng gasket. The rest of 08 is gona be busy. The ole ladys gona be a grandma between now and late janruary. 2 weeks of quality time with the 65 for big daddy.:lol::metal: So how bout the cracka and I come buy after Christmas?
