So I got hood,doors, rear tire wheels, front bumper brackets and two fenders ....
I got.a lot.planned with each item..
Just took the doors apart and they are ready for sanding
Hood needs some work and I just finish popping out a dent it had and need bando and sanding
I'm using the fenders to replace the cut I did.wheel opening!

Change of plans with the power steering not doing it any more. Truck turns a lot better with the original steering wheel

Put in a metal bed floor.. Now I need some 67-72 Tubs...
Went thru another fn hood poped on me..
I bought a 97 Tahoe that drove great but owed 700 in tags soi sold it and strip the L31 engine for the truck. Other than that we cool over here.


Also added the doors and that other bed..

Hardesty454 02-04-2014 08:01 PM

Re: S!ck5 65 rebuild
 
Bed looks good. Stockton pick and pull have 5 or so 67-72 long beds. You should be able to find a set of tubs there.

Re: S!ck5 65 rebuild
 
Thanks I'll check it out..
Any going to the 99 speedway sunday

Looks good. Will the 64-66 bed wheel wells not fit? I just picked up a steel floor the other day. Do you have any more pics of how you put the bed floor in?

Sick5 02-05-2014 04:17 PM

Re: S!ck5 65 rebuild
 
I made a mistake cutting the back corners to much.for me since I have raised my floor I cut about an inch on all cross beams under that bed floor. Then notch out the back corners.
On the install you have to remove one side Of the bed.
And you need 67-72 wheel tubs 60-66 too small

Looks pretty good!

Quick question though, off subject but you don't know the diameter of the tube used on your porterbuilt bridge do you?

I got a 65 GMC as well and am in the process of swapping out the 305 for a 350. Where did you get the wiring harness for the conversion? Thanks for the info!

No problem on the size! It was good to see you again too. I'm going to try and see you guys more at the shows and what not. I was wondering about the size so I have a good variation of dies for my bender. I thought it was 1.5 .120 but apparently 1" is large enough.

Sick5 10-21-2014 01:05 AM

Re: S!ck5 65 rebuild
 
Well your in luck since I hade pull the transmission out I can see what size is it. I'll do it tomorrow after work

working on my Accuair project. Most people have it installed under the bed. But i like the look of it on top of the bed.
I need to remove the the tank. reinstall new 3/8 air lines. i have 1/2 at the moment. I really wanted to buy the accuair au4 tank mount but dont have the cash. so i fig i would try to build my own. here some picture of the mount.

Sick5 12-01-2014 11:36 AM

Re: S!ck5 65 rebuild
 
anyone know if its a good idea to weld on to the air tank? i got a few ideas for the airtank mount. using a chain to wrap around the airtank then from the chain to the accuair mount. just need to remove the tank and try it out
