Well to be perfectly honest I just wanted to get some cool stuff for my own trucks and I one thing led to another. But Right now I just want to get the show over with and see how the truck and parts go over....

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Killer long day .....5 people in the shop from 8 am till 2:30 am...Got the kick panels and speakers set up in and it sounds wicked already . The sub box be ready till Friday and I can't wait to show you how I do my box'es. Oh.....I forgot....So uhm we kinda bagged it last night....lol. We had some extra parts kicking in the shop we talked about , I went on a parts run I came back and the front coils were already out on the floor. It's not finished but the bags are all in . Crap front end is on too.....like i said long day. New CNC parts today and I fricken love it and hope to take pictures of it tomorrow. I got to go to bed I have to be back in the shop in 4 1/2 hours....

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Okay I had to do this.....The Fonz standing beside two trucks i built.....Thats just too cool..lmao

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Aaaaaaaaaaaa

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

I have never met Mr Winkler, but friends have and say that he is super cool...he just never got away from the Fonz role, and that is too bad.

Nice looking show, I suspect you did well ?

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Sweet!!!!

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Super cool!

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

I was pretty happy with all the feed back.....it's a freaky feeling when judges start measuring your cowl gaps.....check bolt head direction.....but in the end it all worked out. I was lucky enough to take first place in my class.....

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Too Cool & Congrats! Well Deserved!!!
:metal::metal::metal:

Re: 66 SBFS street truck

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Wow
Wow
Wow !!!!

Congrats !!!
Cowl gaps eh?
Hard enough to get even gaps on these old trucks with the factory tolerances and repop parts..... props to ya man :metal:

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Thanks guy's.....

I got a ton of help from almost everyone i know and with out all the help I got I would have never pulled it off.

....I got lots of stuff to show you all. We finished off the stereo as we did my booth at the show...custom kick pods with my box in behind the seat housing a set of 12's. It's a pounder for sure....So we have,power windows almost done,power locks almost done,back up cam almost done,navigation almost done,heated seats done....and it goes on and on lol

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Well another crazy week in the shop.....I decided to upgrade and go to a one piece drive shaft and so today I picked up my new yokes to install and make the measurements to have it made...Will give you the pieces and part numbers if you want but these yokes will take 500 Hp and so will the driveshaft....

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

When your doing a driveshaft and upgrading horsepower it's a good idea to upgrade yokes as well. Here are the parts i used which should easily take 550 HP.....You just have to match up the yokes to the diff and tranny for the HP...I learned this the hard way once so just saying

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Hey Bomp

It's still not finished but it's getting closer up front....

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

I wanted the dash clean with out a bunch of extra buttons and power points so we placed all of that into the glove box....

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Sneak peek at the next project we are working on......all kinds of crazy...

Re: 66 SBFS street truck

The next project is definitely a must watch

You da man Bomp....You da man...
Ya your to dig the build in the warm up bay...

I just poured some more concrete and am trying to get my hoist moved over and set up so I can start using it

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Wonders where everyone went .....cause it sure got quiet in here....lol. Usually this only happens when i am not working on something but this build is actually in the home stretch

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

I'm here dude! I'm just around the corner from the driveline build. Where'd ya score the yokes? What u-joints them use?

Your stuff all looks candy man! Need more pics of the truck and details on that next build :metal:

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

I rolled your page. Need more eye candy.....

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

I bought all the yokes and universials from a place called Pat's driveline . They called it all 3500 series and said it would take 550-600 Hp no problem . I am using the same stuff on the next build just getting to the driveshaft next day or so . The tranny yoke actually comes like the one i bought kind of a billeted look or more of a cast look.....So yea i had to have the billeted look one. ...But i had them make the driveshaft and spec the yokes and the driveshaft comes with the universials and yokes installed and balanced.....They did that in 24 hours turn around time......great guys and a huge shop

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Sneak Peek at the next one! :metal::bann::metal:

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

I know i was showing how i build my sub boxes but i don't think i ever showed a completed picture did i ? Well for the last few builds I have been building my own sub boxes that fit behind the seat all nice and tight. Now don't get me wrong but i am off the carpetting the sub boxes thing lately. We all have out things and mine seems to build them round everything and body work them and paint them the truck colour to blend them in. I just dig the way it looks i guess....lol....I am sure it's not for everyone but it works for me.

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Of course you have to toss in a set of custom made kick pods ....in my opion...lol.

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

I had a chance to pull the hulk into the shop recently and we have been using the stereo to listen to in the shop and have determined the following....a 8 step guide to stereo 101

How to check to see if your stereo is tuned and operating correctly.

1) Place truck in the shop
2)Open truck doors
3) Select music you like that is sub driven
4)Close shop doors
5) Crank stereo to max
6) Watch the case of the oil fall off the shelf and splatter all over the floor
7) Stand around in a group looking at the puddle of oil and be impressed
8) lol ....

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

I am so going to try this!!
Words to live by :metal:

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Well.....it seemed like a good idea at the time......lol.....

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Speaker box looks awesome! Love the painted look!

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

Thanks man......i dig the way it blends in when it's painted.You ever come out west ? I did the puyallup goodguy's last year haven't made the one in spokane one yet.

Re: 66 SBFS street truck
 

truck is really looking great, my wife loves the green!!


sub box looks awesome, I'm going to build mine and the kick pods too! I'm just going to have the kick panel ones up a lil higher so I can use the dimmer and have them pointed off at an lil angle! all mdf and fiberglass for both! I love the smooth painted look an also leather or vinyl covered! carpeted it just ok an plain jane, lol!

let me know if you remember any of the measurements of the sub box
