Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Thanks Leon, I'm getting really excited if you couldn't tell.
If anyone has a tubular trans xmember let me know asap. |
Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread

Idk, I think it would look good either way.

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
I agree. But I say if possible, just keep a set of each (all black tire set, and a set with trim rims and whitewalls).
Never get bored that way |

No trim ring.
Defeats the Copo/poverty cap look. |

Yup. But I start out low. Then go full up. Then lay down. Then ride dirty. Then ride hot rod. Then ride low low low. Then repeat. You love it. I park laid flat out. BTW,I know you are looking forward to your new transmission. I am looking forward to my new motor and 6 gears. I am hoping to see some nice mpgs too. Posted via Mobile Device |

"low and slow is the way to go" no trim ring and the skinny whites look really good

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Well I just gave my key to the guys at the tranny shop. Unfortunately I am off work tomorrow so it will be hard for me to take any pictures. I'm thinking maybe I could have Ron snap some pics of the progress for me. :D

Ok here are some pics of the install. Obviously are the parts that have been removed, let me know if anyone needs anything. Also the trans thats in some of the pics is the mock up tranny.

So the truck will be down for a few days huh? Is it that quick that your 700 is so close to ready?

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
I think we are going to go with a one piece drive shaft as well
|
Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Sweet ShawnO!!
|
Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Man I need to have one rebuilt and put in. I know I'll have to shorten my one piece drive shaft and figure out how ill mount my 700. But doing the other stuff to make it function is what boggles me like the linkages and how it affects gear selection at the column
