"Thanks - I did not rebuild the hinges. The doors seem to very tight before I removed them. Tuckers Classic Auto Parts here in Vegas have been a good source for me on some of the hard to find parts. Ask for Cody or Tom. "
tuckers is a pretty cool spot. deffinatly a good place for parts best thing is the have a lot about an hour or so away near arizona were they have all trucks being parted for sale! from what i know its 60's early 70's but i think they have various ones anybody in vegas area into the 67-72 on a budget diffinatly a place to check out. or to find parts period! nice build by the way and good color choice |

Drill a small pilot hole on the door hinges and use them to realign the doors for assembly...
Where did you get the parts. I was thinking of buying new inner fenders... Also, whos doing the paint? |

My painter is a friend that does only custom work. Here are a few pictures of my fuel tank that I am modifying for the fuel injection system. I cut the end off to install a baffle. Also added a filler neck. The tank came out of my buddie's old boat. I couldn't believe the dimensions were perfect to fit in the rear of my frame rails. http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/y...ps860aaae8.jpg Welding the new filler neck. http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/y...pseade6df1.jpg http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/y...psd70fdc6e.jpg http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/y...ps36dd2590.jpg |
