little bit more
made the in cab tank fit underneath, both wheel tubs in Attachment 1517438 made some body ribs. stock panel trucks were only double skinned partway up, then single with the ribs hanging out, chevy then attached a board to the ribs to prevent damage to the skin if your cargo took off on ya, so i picked up a piece of basswood to replicate it Attachment 1517437 could'nt resist, really liking this Attachment 1517439Attachment 1517440 |
Re: '64 chevy 2wd to 4wd
It's looking great. The ribs are nice detail. Iwas wondering when you would get to the visor...lol. The trucks coming out great.

yup, know what thats like....
got 2 crews & a '55 waiting, a peterbilt.....and then today i threw a couple more in the mix. too good a deal to pass up, for up here anyway. '70 big block impala 3n1 $10, another'68 elky big block $10 Attachment 1518067 Attachment 1518068 '60 fleetside, $5 cause the box is boogered, like i care....:lol: Attachment 1518069 going to try find another '60 to make a crewy, impala & elky i snagged for parts, mainly the b.blocks, cause i have no more big blocks left in the parts box, had just enough to put one together for the panel. it costs me 'bout 3x's what i paid for the impala for one b.block from the casters Attachment 1518070 was re-hashing these old headers out, but i think i will snag a set of the stockers from the impala. thats whats left of a cowl plenum air cleaner Attachment 1518071 |

Re: '64 chevy 2wd to 4wd
I have a few offers but if I take one my severance dissappears. So I'll get stuff done around the ranch and then worry about it. Make the payment and make her happy. I suck at picking jewelry too.
