Well making some progress on the 58....
I am really happy with the way it's going together.....it should be pretty sweet when it's done...I hope to switch out the LS2 pan tomorrow and get it ready to drop in . |

Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
It's amazing how fast things go when you take out the body shop part.....The paints not mint but it will be good enough to be a driver ...

Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
That is going to be a sweet truck in no time at all!
|
Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
Very nice, great progress...you'll be driving soon...at least there's rain so shop work is perfectly timed.
I may have missed the parts list, LS2 from a Trailblazer, what are the front and rear assemblies and any aftermarket kits? Looks like Vette rear, custom install?? Thanks gonna be a fun summer!! |

Well the LS2 is out of a trail blazer and rated at 395 HP with a 480 4 speed automatic behind it.....the front and rear is a c-4 corvette donor thing going on. I bought the mounting kit from flat out.....then when we started to mount it ....it was going to sit up to high.....so we took the kit and inset it into the frame to lower it more. Now back to the LS2...It's the same LS2 as what is in the corvette but the trailblazer has a different intake/runner and fuel rails. So we picked up a corvette intake for it and are just getting down to the pulley's now....trying to raise the A/C and the power steering pump up higher to help the set up sit in lower. Might be looking at the new caddy set up but still not sure. |

Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
Well it's going to be a rough week.....
The 58 has a big list on the fly....and it's in rush mode because I want it finished for fathers day... The 65 big window street truck ....well I dropped the chassis off at the body shop to trial fit the cab before paint to make sure we are all good with it before paint. The cab should be ready, the firewall and dash changes are all complete. So it's a trail fit for all thefront end stuff now. The pro truck.....well I have been so busy with everything else that I didn't have time to do the kind of work that needed to be done on it. So it was a hour here and there and it just wasn't what it should be. But....we should be back on it really soon, it's pulled off the rack at the body shop and headed for the floor to get back into mock up mode. |

Well the street truck actually has some paint and the front end on it.....which is pretty exciting.....but I can't lie I have been spending my time mostly on the 58 which is almost ready to rumble...

Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
Okay so ....
The tire and wheels...well while we were working on the 58 across the shop was sitting this nice black corvette.....The Arc Audio corvette.....wicked....stunning...SEMA car that is getting some killer new upgrades. So uhm some one got the idea that the bolt pattern was right and they might look okay if the offset worked out so we could get a idea atleast. Long story short version....corvette up on blocks....58 down on the ground with wheels...you do the math...lol. So the wheels are still a deal in process...but I love'em |
Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
The 58 looks awesome! That is a sweet IH 4700 in the back too!

http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=527123 The street truck cab is apparently painted....and the box and front end should be painted soon....will post some pictures up here soon... The 54 slammer box is at the body shop now as well and it's in play, when the 65 street truck comes back the 54 will go down to the body shop ( atleast thats my plan ) Once the 65 is together ( which will take a while it's a very detailed build ) it's back onto the pro truck and my 69 camaro.... |
Re: 1966 SBBW pro street
