Would you want to get rid of that air cleaner, separate from the engine? Good luck on the build.

Nice truck. That looks like the saddle color not 50th color combo.

You might not want to use those front tires shown in the first tear-down pictures. I don't think they'd be very safe.

so you like my unsafe tires..i picked up the truck on a trailer,when i tryed to unload the truck i had to pump over 80 lbs of air in the front tires so they wouldnt hit the side rails of the trailer.the next day it was 100 degrees outside . i was at work.my next door neighbor called me and said something blew up at my house...i called home and my son said the f-----n tire blew up.he was in the garage.it scared the **** out of him....you think i should of took out the air ?:metal:

just came home from rotator cuff PT .thinking about putting in a 49-52 chevy gas tank.it is 27 1/2 wide by 19 1/2 & 7 1/2 inches deep ...will sit only 3 1/4 inches below the frame..oh ya it hold's 15 gallons of fuel..it should fit up in between the frame rails..with a little work..

Re: my 68
 
wow thats an awsome idea you should have a filler tube that mounts in the cab at the factory hole and come down nto the tank just a suggestion
