New here thought id share my rides
 

hey guys, just want to say i love this site, it helped me alot in building my truck so i thought i would share it with you. First off i bought it 8 years ago when i was 14 and loved it ever since. Its a 67 bigwindow longbed daily driver. TBI 350 with a 700r4 trans. its the first motor and trans ive ever built and i think they turned out pretty good, sure beats the 327 and powerglide combo it came with in 67. it also has 2.5' drop spindles in front with a 6' ECE kit out back. interior is redone with all auto meter gauges and a seat out of a 2003 chevy pickup. anyway any feedback is welcomed and tell me what you think i should do different or next.

and here are my weekend rides. the white one with red letters is mine, the white/blue letters is my dads, and the blue one is our car we built out of spare parts from ours. just thought id share

Nice rides there. The white truck looks good, clean detailed engine bay. I would say paint and or interior next.

By the way. How did you plumb your fuel system? I had planned on a TBI setup at one time. What did you use for a pump, where did you mount it and what did you run for fuel lines. I saw the blazer tank in the rear. I did the same mod on mine.

Welcome

Fan of the 67's are we.. very cool rides. Ideas on the truck- you could always start body work and refinish the log mani's..

Re: New here thought id share my rides
 

Very nice collection you got there.. Paint would be next, that is unless you just want to drive and enjoy. Did you put disc on the front yet?

i agree new paint is definitly on the list but i cant decide on a color. i was thinkin either white(of course) or maybe silver with some kind of two tone color scheme. i really like the flat black trucks, and bein that i drive ity everyday it might be easier to take care of.

Re: New here thought id share my rides
 

yeah its got discs on the front. i think they are from a late 70s pickup but im not sure. a buddy of mine put a tube chassis on a late 70s truck and gave me the left overs.

Welcome!

Any more pics of the `66 Chevelle?

Re: New here thought id share my rides
 

I know that isn't just a 2.5" drop up front, is it really a 5/6 drop or something like that?

Either way, truck looks great! :metal:

Re: New here thought id share my rides
 

If it was mine, I'd leave the paint as is
Your truck kinda reminds me of Tav's truck

I really like that truck, looks like a great daily driver
My 67 is a daily driver, but is still a work in progress
