If you want to save the kleen one, I've got a pretty solid body on a 1/2 T Chassis, if you want something to play around with.....

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Yep. but that site is pretty slow. I plan on posting a "real" project thread somewhere (not sure where yet) once I reach a certain point (probably after the engine is mounted).

I like this statement the best! hahahahaha :lol::lol:

Are ya sure ya can handle it frizzle???


Talk about an understatement...! ;)


I'm not a fan of "ferin" or 4 door cars but I kinda like the "dare to be different" aspect of little blue, and as always I like to see the fab work! Post a link when ya find a home for the build thread!

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

My friends at work call it "corn" (car porn):lol:

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*

DAMN FF that is sweet. dana 44 rear? what did that come out of to be that short? i think your son is growing attached to the minx. BTW did the driver survive the telephone pole?

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

I'm guessing by the tape measure pic, it's out of a mid '70's Jeep CJ.

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

I'm thinkin the driver headed to the big after party. The guy who I bought it from provided a few too many details so I'll leave it at that.

Very close BlueJeep; the D44 is from a 1970 DJ-5 (postal Jeep). It's a 3.73 Trac-Lok (thanks again to CG for haulin it down).

I had the axles re-drilled to fit the S2000 rotors which just happens to be the same bolt pattern as those wheels. I'll most likely be running 235/35/17's all around.

The Tri-4-Link is from Art Morrison.

as long as you weren't scraping skin or brain matter off the drivers side it's all good.

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

So I guess "TORN" would be Truck Porn? :lol:

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Ahh, that was my first guess....the spring perches on top of the axle should have given it away....

I think everyone is going to kill me for bumping this thread hoping that some more progress was made, but its just a damn newbie :new:
I would just like to say I joined the site in hopes of finding out what headers to use on my SBC to BBC swap (no I'm not going to start a NOTHER thread about that) and my search (damn, I wish all newbies knew how to search) took me to your build. AH-FRICKEN-MAZING. There has been so much I have missed out on not being on this board.

Now off to do an Intro and build page

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Oh man ...Banned after the first post! :lol:

Thanks for the compliments and welcome to the board.

Did you find your answer? If not here's a thread with some info.

Since this thread got bumped via false alarm (no worries ace of shades), I'll post the link to my "Other Project."

Tubby will be back as soon as that one is on the road!

Cool! I was wondering where you were gonna put the build thread on that!

Good work ace of shades! LOL

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

I'm getting bored... Any updates yet? You know that I am living vicariously through you until I have someplace to start tearing mine apart, right?

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Yeppers, what he said, updates?

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

I got nuthin on this one fellas :( The beamer needs to get finished first. You know, I haven't even driven it with the new exhaust and I have a PBDM waiting to go in ...it's killin me! On a good note, I'm closing on a house and finishing school this month so there is light at the end of the tunnel (money and time) :)

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

:eek: moving? thought you just moved in?

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Yeah, what he said.

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Not moving. It's a lease-option purchase.

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

so the house you are at now, you are buying out the lease? then that's cool.

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

My parents did that back in the day too! They rented the house I grew up in for the first few years, then bought it (they still own it.)

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Congratulations on the house and the PBDM. I have a house so I guess 1 out of 2 isn't bad:lol:

You have a PBDM too, right?

The lease option is similar to stock options in that you are guaranteed a purchase price for an asset. Stock options are generally issued as reward units where as a lease option is secured with a fee that may or may not be later applied toward the down payment for purchasing the property.

In my case we agreed on a purchase price, and I paid a fee for the right to buy the property at that price in 14 months time. The money I put toward that fee applies toward the down as well as a percentage of the monthly rent. So at the end of the contract, when I purchase the home, I will have built more equity than with a conventional loan in the same period of time. The risk: If I do not secure financing before the contract expires I loose the fee and monthly accumulated funds.

Congrats frizzle on getting the house and finishing school!!:metal:

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Thanks Josh!

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Finishing school?

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

gotta keep that in mind... i may be looking for a house soon myself... needs ample room for the toys.

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Yep I have one coming but I think the man in the brown van may be doing unspeakable things too it, but once he grows board of it I am sure it will show up :lol:

It is paid for but Nate has been working a few changes into it for me as well as for the future C4 DM owners. Plus right now I am trying to cram as many customer builds in as I can so I will be able to afford my English wheel and power bead roller before I get too deep in my Tahoe. I have allot of plans for the sheet metal under the hood;)
