Thread: My latest toy

Tweet

I thought I posted on this before but can't find it anywhere. Back a few months ago I went out looking for a new project. I found this I've had a few before and they are nice when done. I have already pulled the bed and took what was left to the scrap yard. All the rear frame and suspension is now done except for shocks. I have cab corners rockers and parts of the floors to redo. Chris asked if I hated myself lol. It has a 307 in it now may stay that way but picked up a few 350s with 4 bolt mains the other day just to speculate. Seeif I post this I will be forced to work on it.

Nice, and YES you can expect us to bug on you for pics and updates but you've already done it now and we are like a bunch of Elephants that NEVER forget.

I do remember you "picking this up".. and I wanted to ask (harass) you what happened with it... but I was being polite!

But now that the cat is out of the bag so to speak....

yup, he's fair game now !

Nice, I've got a 72 C10 Highlander I'm parting out/trying to sell right now that is that same green. Keep the progress up! I love this body style!

All that work.... and all we get is 5 tiny measley pictures!

let the games begin !

You can come over and play anytime

Not making excuses but this past few weeks I have been getting my wood shed filled up. It holds 12 cord. Today I split 2 cord by Thursday I should be able to get back on the project. It will be getting P/S & P/B. to start.

Your truck is a mix of parts isn't it? I see 72 doors, the 69/70 grill, and hood. If you need power brake brackets, I have an extra setup I could make you a deal on.

It is a 72 but that's the way I got it. I already have power steering and power brakes for it along with all the sheet metal floors rockers corners. I hate starting a project then having to wait for parts. I got the right hood a couple weeks ago. The bed I got back in a snow storm ha ha. Its been sitting on my car hauler since then.
Don't look like much is done but I am by my self here and unloaded the trailer in the rain.

Thanks for the invite! I wouldn't mind dropping in and helping/ playing!! Especially with the train sets!

Of course you do realize how little work we would actually get done right???

And thanks for the pics too!

Cool deal. Your cowl looks pretty nice. That'll save you somme rust repair.
