It won't be as soon as I would like but I think it will be extremely sweet when its done. It may even get painted before it comes back out.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

I'll take 800 for all four wheels but I need to see check the front lug pattern.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

damn man thats what you would pay for one if they were new
i hope someone buys them
are the rears 15x10?

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

15x10 in the rear and 15 x 3.5 or 4 up front but I think they are either 5 on 4.5 or 5 on 4.75 in the front.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

with or without tires?

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

I'd leave the rears but they are a couple years old.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

i hope you have luck selling them :thumbs:

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

R u sure you don't want to swap for a 12bolt with 3.73s and an new Aburn posi???? :D

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

Whats the deal with the new engine?

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

Awsome truck! What is the axle width and back spacing for your old setup? Thanks.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

Never noticed you were redoing the truck til now. Looks great! Can't wait to see it hit the tracks again!

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

I have almost every piece just waiting on a friend to put it together.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

The old wheels are 15x10 with 5 inches of back spacing. I don't know the width of the the old rear but its about 2 to 3 inches narrower than stock. I am gonna be running a 16x33x10.5w tire with a 14 to 16 inch wide wheel.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

I have been working on it since I blew the old motor up. It has been a slow process but I hope the wait will be worth it. I had a real low paying job for a couple years and that didn't help at all. I am redoing a ton of stuff and trying to get it painted also. It should be lighter, faster and better looking when all is done.:metal:

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

What Cylinder heads you using? the same BB2X?

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

bb3 xtra's

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

Sorry if I missed it, but what is that front suspension setup? How much was it? It looks pretty light.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

Its a bolt on Fatman mustang II setup. They vary in price with options.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

anything new kevin?

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

I bought some take off tires (33x10.5wx16's)so I can see how much to narrow the rearend.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

I'll post some wheel and tire pics.

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck

Re: Its Mine the World Famous 67 Dragtruck
 

I took pics but I can't find them. I will take some more. I want to go stick them under the truck just to see what will fit.


On another note My engine builder is finally working on my 548!:metal::metal::metal::metal::metal:

The first dragtruck I ever saw that made me want a 67-72 chevy dragtruck was black and I have gotta go black. I may add graphics later.
