Man nice truck that motor is sweet,,, what size are the tires and rims, I'm guessing 18/20? I have a 67 stepside and was thinking on changing the bed to fleetside but you know how hard it is to find a fleetside ,,haha,,

That's a b-e-a-u-ty!!! I need my sunglasses. :lol:

Mine won't hold a candle to yours, dialric, but she's a good strong daily runner, and she's clean enough to eat Thanksgiving dinner off of...Today anyway !!

It's a '68 327 4 bolt block. I had it bored to .030 over, decked, and line honed. I used a new Scat steel 350 crank and TRW forged pistons, so it ended up at 355 CI. I used a high volume oil pump, a Comp Cams RV cam, a Cloyes double row timing set, 76 CC 2.02 World Products S/R heads with Comp Cams roller tipped rockers with KoolNuts, a ProComp HEI distributor, and an Edelbrock manifold with a 600 CFM carb. The compression ended up at 9 to 1. At about 4000 miles she's broke in and running really well. I'm not sure how many horses she makes, but it's enough to put a smile on my face and move the ol' 1/2 ton down the road in style.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

wow Steve, I'd look for something else.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

Steve, I'm not sure where Whitesville is, but I'll help ya find another cab if you'd like!
Oh and welcome to the board, I feel kinda weird saying that I jsut joined myself. If you're ever around Lewis county or Fleming county stop in.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

i would like to find another cab but the funds just won't allow it at the time. and being thats all i got in this i am going to try to fix it.(i have another firewall off of a donor)

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

I wish you the best of luck in your undertaking. That looks......tough.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

Well, I would say try to find a cab. I bet sence it is a big rear window you could find a cab pretty cheap. If you do decide to fix it, post a thread in the "projects and build section" Yeah, it's pretty bad, but not impossible, my truck was in pretty bad shape when I got her too! (not quite as bad as yours...but bad)

Congrats on the truck!:metal:

the biggest problem is inside the cab where the top of the windshield meeds the cab, it's rusting out pretty bad...can this be fixed? what are my options as far as that goes? thanks.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

a picture of the rust on the windshield. also how important are the trailing arms? is $350 a good price for a nice non rusted pair of them?

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

It was worth it! The trailing arms are VERY important, without them you rear end wouldnt be there. $350 for a brand new set? Custom? Used?

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

they're stock originals, but are not rusted out, have been painted, but need bushings.

thanks for the reply, i thought it was a steel. i wanted simple with few power robbers. lol

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

If you have leaf springs they aren´t really important. :lol:

Imagine this: You are driving down the road just cruisin at about 45 and the left trail arm decides to snap in half or release itself from the frame.
The Axle will slip to the rear of the truck throwing you and your truck in to a spin towards the right side of the road.
Don´t try to steer in the other direction though, by the time you react you will already be in the ditch or the parked cars.

I don´t know what they cost new or used but if you think they are bad any price is right if you need to keep driving the truck.

Re: Post Your Ride 67-72 Trucks
 

$300 for flat black stock trialing arms that need bushings, not much of a deal in my opinion.
