I rewired the complete car, after I reinstalled the dash. And got everything working. All the wires are hidden. The guy that owns the car also owns a body shop. He will paint it Fararri Red and put a black canvas top. It's going to be an awesome car when done. http://belair.smugmug.com/Cars/Kusto...53_2zgPV-M.jpg http://belair.smugmug.com/Cars/Kusto...32_T2toT-M.jpg http://belair.smugmug.com/Cars/Kusto...15_ER6sE-M.jpg |

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Picked some Intro Nitro's for the 62 SS Impala I'm doing a frame off on. Put the 18" & 20" up against my truck to see how they would look. They're a little to modern for me, but the sizes look great. If anybody wants some Intro Wheels let me know. I can beat anybody prices.
Check the out here. http://www.introwheels.com/wheels_1.shtml http://belair.smugmug.com/Other/1965...48_nGFK8-L.jpg |
Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
the good old coys would look best i think you just can beat those on a old chevy

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
I agree but these Twisted Vista's looked great on my 56 Belair.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
what color are you planning to go with on this truck?
|
Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Red & Black 2 tone with red interior. I'll add some pinstripping in silver also for a color division. Plus some old school stripping. That's a ways off though.

No more like this, only with red on top, and black on the bottom.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
oooohw me like me like
allso like the way the wheel sits in the rearwheelwell in that pic |
Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Yeah it tucks in nice. Mine will tuck even further than that with the bags I'm installing. Keep checking in. That's coming up next when I start on the frame again. Just have to finish the flare on the drip rail, and shave the hole for the speaker grill in the dash.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Your truck is going to look good.
|
Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Thanks Jason. I just want to get it running and on the road. Then I'll blow it apart and paint it, but I'll do the inside and the frame first, before I drive it & paint the outside later.
|
Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Nice plan. I think I'll do the same. ;)

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
But I need an air compressor before I can do much more. Come on money tree. I'm thinking you'll be done first.
|
Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
friend of mine used a couple of propanetanks hooked up in series with a big water seperator and a realy small compressor he let it run for bout 2 hours to fill up the tanks before he started painting .
it worked pretty good no airpulses from the compressorpistons or water/oil in the air to ruin the flow out the gun the small compressor does have a shorter than normal lifespan running it that way but its cheaper to replace then a big compressor and has more use like lifting it up a stairs and use it to power a tacker or nailgun |
Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
I think Dave is talking about a compressor for the air bags. Are U Dave??

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
I was talking about a compressor for painting/sand blasting.:chevy: But I need two of the other kind also, I don't need those for awhile though. I was looking at getting one from Lowes for about 800. When I get it I can start painting some stuff. I already burned up a pancake compressor.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
I'm getting close to start working on her again. I have a 06 Ford Focus for sale. When it's sold I'll have all that money to buy a bunch of stuff for the 65. I have to finish the roof, then will work on the interior. I have to shave the dash first then paint the inside of the cab. Then I can install a windshield. Then get back on the frame, and install a chrome triangle 4 link with bags front & rear. Also notch the frame then I'll have it sand blasted, and powder coated. This is why I stopped working on it. Now I need to spend some money. The Focus will fix that. Now I just have to sell it. Stay tuned. ;)

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Plus my camera is broke, and was sent in to be replaced. Still waiting for it to be sent. :waah:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
We've been waiting this long, what's a little while longer? :haha:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Thanks for your encouragement guys. :haha: :haha:
A used car dealer offered me $5,500 for it. I'll advertise it first. I'm trying to get $6,200. But $5,500 would buy a lot of stuff. |
