That is a real good one Chris. I like this one myself, of course I am a bit prejudice because of the photographer. :lol:

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
 

Good god that is a beautiful truck! Very nicely done!

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
 

Beautiful truck, I love it.

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
 

Thanks guys, I'm enjoying it ! With winter here , I'm taking the downtime to make a few changes and a few upgrades . First thing that had to go was the Detroit Locker in the rear . When I bought the unit many years ago , the truck was being built as more of a weekend warrior thing . Those of you that have run them know exactly what I'm talking about . They're great, tough units . But extremely aggresive and they don't ever let you forget they're back there ! The ratchet noise was driving me nuts . I want it nice and quiet so it's getting replaced with a Trac Loc unit .

Also on the list is new kick panels in leather to match the seat . New radiator cover, Porterbuilt hood hinges and Hills inner fenders .

Amazing. I didn't realize you went whit grille till now. Did you go white or off white? Man that black looks flawless

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
 

Truck looks amazing Chris and I like the changes your making. Oh by the way you got my vote for truck of the month.

:metal: I like where this is going

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
 

Uh oh!!!!

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
 

That's what I was thinking James!!

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
 

I was going to say that I had nothing to do with him changing his mind again, but dammit, he called me out! :lol:

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
 

:lol::lol: Yep !

Still not sure which direction I'll take to get the truck even lower , but regardless, these PB hinges along with the Hills inner fenders are a necessary part of the equation . I'll get those two done first while I figure out the rest .

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
 

Lol it's like a sickness Chris, you just got to keep going until you hit the ground

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
 

Chris, I just re-read your whole build thread. I'm one of the lucky ones that gets to see it fairly often, but I still forget exactly how much detail you have gone through in order to get it where it is now. It is definitely deserving of the TOTM, and you know I will vote for it in the TOTY poll which should be coming up soon.

Re: Bowtie468's Extreme '68 BuildPage
 

It looks amazing! I really like the vette filler door. Beautiful truck!
