The second pic is just after i got the cab back on the frame. I painted the frame using KBS Coatings Gloss black frame kit, great product. The rockers, cowl area and air box, and some of the floor boards had some rot that i've fixed, just have to fix a few holes along the drip rail and the cab will be ready for paint. To do the frame and the underside of the cab, i had it jacked up with camper jacks and suspended from the rafters. Was able to do the rockers real easy because they were belly high, so i could sit on my stool and repair them! The third shows the Watts linkage i made to replace the panhard bar. The forth shows the motor that will be going in, a 455 pontiac bored to 463 with Eagle crank and rods, billet 4-bolt mains, Kauffman D-port aluminium heads and i'll be running a Megasquirt injection.

looking good! what color are you painting the truck?

This is my '62 I got after my great grandfather had it for years, passed away last year. I finally got it running, gas tank de-rusted, new fuel lines, rebuilt the carb, new master and slave cylinder going in soon.

Hopefully be able to test drive it around the yard soon!!

Nothing cooler than a truck with family history. Looking forward to updates as the project progresses.

Your personal pictures have to be downloaded to Photo Bucket, or what I use is www.SmugMug.com But I think Photo Bucket is free. Then copy the pictures url (http://www) and so on. Then paste that in that little box. Good luck.

Here are some shots of my 1964 GMC 1/2 ton Long Box.
I have ordered a pile of parts from Nathan at Porter Built.
As soon as they arrive the transformation will begin.

With 5" springs and blocks you might want to order a set of bolt in frame notches or fab your own! you'll only have about 1/2" clearance.

what i would really like to do is step the whole section of frame where the spring and the shock and all that mounts. i really like the idea of an extremely low static truck. id like to lower the front with some spindles and maybe z the frame too. ofcourse that is all going to require time. and a welder. one day

I like this truck also. The wheels look like Intro's, but I need a closer look to be sure. If you want a set, I can get them for you. I'm a dealer.
