Forgot about the power disc brake swap. Can't wait to try out mine once it's back on the road; I'm sure it's a nice difference!

Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"
 

No hang on to it. Not sure if I'm going to make it. Have 2 girls to deliver to college on Saturday and I'm not sure which one I'm taking, if either. If I can get out of it, I'll be there. I've got a couple of items on my "Swap Meet" list that I'm still on the hunt for.

Also, I went and lost a couple of the tabs that hold the jack handle spring down while I was "cleaning" the garage. Man, I really need to get more organized.:whine:

Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"
 

Not a bad looking truck Tony and I'm glad you still have your eye peeled because you know I'm always on the hunt :uhmk: but I rather have more of a stocker (I think). Keep looking if you don't mind my "Craig's list junkie" friend. :lol:

Thanks Chevy dude, once I have these molding replaced this baby really going to pop! ;)

Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"
 

great looking ride but you need to change the name to 50/50 bar

Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"
 

cool truck,like the color

Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"
 

I have been thinking the same, but I don't want to change the name of this thread. :lol:

Thanks, once the white was added it really enhanced the orange.

Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"

Thank you Chris. :chevy:

Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"
 

Looks great!
Are there any differences in the stock wheels vs the 1970 front wheels on the front side for cap mounting or visual offset?
who did you use for the power disc set up?
did you use a dropped style rear crossmember with the 5"' drop?

Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"
 

Hey buddy, the caps went on the front without a hitch :metal: and all the disc brake/lowering components were "CPP" products including the rear, which are only dropped 5" coils (no C notch needed), it rides fantastic and brakes like a dream!!!! :chevy:

Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"
 

New moldings going on this week!!!!!

Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"
 

Somewhere hidden in that pic is a beautifull truck :)

New mouldings! Those look great

Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"
 

Because of this thread I am buying white paint this week. Great job.

Re: 65' Short Fleet BBW "The Pumpkin"
 

In a few days it's really going to pop!

Thanks, that white paint will look sweet on your truck and it will take it to the next level!!!! :metal::metal::metal:
