I feel mostly the same way. I want to make the exterior look nice, lower it a bit, but mostly keep it stock. However [insert insane laugh here] I want it to perform like a beast.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks
 

Exactly, Drop it a couple of inches, are you gonna put a sound system in your truck? im wondering of where to put speakers other than on the doors, because the gas tank is behind the bench seat.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks
 

I want to put a sound system in, with a stock-like fit. You can buy a cool headliner that has speakers built into it. Also, you can put them under the seat, maybe in the glove box? How much are you going to lower it? Do you have a ratio?

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks
 

Yeah i seen the headliner, but i heard the speakers on it arent so good. Yeah under the seat might be a good spot, i dont have a ratio yet, i want it to look good but not dropped enough to grind on the floor or bumps.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks
 

I find that four inches in the front and six inches in the back looks about right. :metal:

Maybe if you move the gas tank behind the rear axle, you could put speakers behind the seat. It would definitely remove the terrible gas smell in the cab.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks
 

Yea that drop looks very nice, my truck already has 2 gas tanks in the rear axles but i dont think they work anymore.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks
 

So you're truck has three gas tanks? Are you planning to do a frame off restoration? If so, I'd tank the other two tanks off of the frame. The whole point of having more than one gas tank was to extend the amount of time that could be traveled without filling up. If this truck won't be a work truck, then three gas tanks is impractical.

Is your 350 small block or big block?

What options did you truck come with?

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks
 

Its a small block, yea i might remove them.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks
 

He has a 1972 F100 Custom, 2 1977 Grand Prix, and an Old School VW i cant remember what year it is.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks
 

Cool combo. The next car I do will be a 1934ish Chevy Standard 2 Door Coach. I really like the old '30s Chevys.

Re: How about some pics of 67-72 Trucks
 

Hi all. I'm new to the forum. Here's some pics of my work in progress, a 1969 Chevy step side. So far I've chopped the top, shaved everything, and lowered it slightly. I'm looking forward to searching the posts, and getting more ideas for the build.
