Re: '64 chevy 2wd to 4wd
have'nt been getting a lot done lately, spring finally came & making up for some lost hrs & have also been unstoring the truck & camper
did get more junk in the mail. some more 38's for the dually, a t-case for it, some drum brake backing plates, some d60 parts & a set of 44's for another project. not shown are 2 D60 axles & a lund visor supposed to be a front & rear D60 axle set. somewhere somehow i ended up with 2 rear axles. not going to send a $2 part back, so some cutting, some careful drilling... revell cheaped out on the stock duallys, just an inner & outer rim & squeeze the tires against each other. made some liners/spacers, whatever you want to call them, keeps the tires way more solid, & i can gap them now. once there black should'nt be able to see them |

Re: '64 chevy 2wd to 4wd
some more details
did'nt like the antennea's, wrapped them in wire & instant glue to make them look like the old "Firestik" style. digging threw the parts box found these cool little lights, think i will add them to the mirrors. twin snorkeled my air cleaner, will sand off the aic valve, put some linkage on the 205, & used a ford exploder alternator. scratched out some visors again got rid of the gumby fender mounted master cyc., added a real one, a wiper motor, & a heater box. h.box is actually a (again) ford exploder oil pan, will do some more mods to it. that ford has ended up on about 5 chevy trucks now! getting the stance for the rear leafs |
