I still need to drill my holes for my wiring any reason why you went high and low like that ? As opposed to straight across ?

Looking good!

Re: My 68 swb build.
 

ya..when you close the door, and if you put it in the jamb like i did, you need a place for the wiring to go...or it would bunch up and the door wont close. in all honesty, i think i screwed up but it ended up working in the long run....one reason is i dont have the vents anymore...and i think thats where most people run the wiring...

Re: My 68 swb build.
 

and it was really the only place to clear the one piece window track...just remember that if you drill in basically the same area, you have to go thru the inner support brace inside the door....and i did this with the doors on with a 3/4 hole saw...one in the door, one in the jamb, and one on the inside of the cab directly under where the dash and kick panel meet for the wiring to run through

Re: My 68 swb build.

Re: My 68 swb build.
 

one thing that is weird, and ill figure it out....i can use the drivers door switch to roll the drivers window up/down, but the other switch, as soon as i hit it, it blows the fuse...but i can roll it down from the passenger switch no problem..i believe i have a problem with the switch...now on the engine side i have to get another breather or install a pcv valve, finish the damn fuel line i keep putting off because i dont wanna crawl under the truck..lol now if i can just get the painter to do something...

Re: My 68 swb build.
 

any tips on exhaust dos and donts?

Re: My 68 swb build.
 

and emergency cable for the doors? i need someone to chime in so i can button up the drivers door ....

Re: My 68 swb build.
 

Hey man it's looking really awesome keep it up. Oh and 106.9 plays less commercials :lol:

Re: My 68 swb build.
 

lol its the only station i can get clearly inside the storage unit with the light on..whoever did the electrical only ran the switch leg up to the light and shared the neutral on the timer....so there is a crap load of noise in the 120v line..

Re: My 68 swb build.
 

not much but i did get a little bit done tonite, despite it only being 2 hrs...and half that time was dealing with the welding bunching up the wire and me having to dig it out for 30 min...heres some pics.

not perfect at all, but for what i got to work with, it should do.

Re: My 68 swb build.
 

I love your new interior. It looks great. I may need some more info on the power window setup you are using. Also, nice work on the bed. Can't wait to see it done.

Re: My 68 swb build.
 

anyone got an idea for the rest of the top rail to match the contour of the lip or a transition?
