WI - Newb with a '66 Stepside
 

Whats up everybody. New guy from the Milwaukee area here.
My baby right now is my '66 stepside; my first venture into the "oldschool".
Heres a quick rundown; 355 w/ 700r4, posi rear, lowered 4" front and 6" in the rear with a notch. Converted to 5 lug and manual front disc. A couple little go fast goodies on the motor, 13gal fuel cell and i'm sure other stuff i missed. So far its probably the most fun thing I've ever owned, and the oldest by about 22yrs.:metal: Excuse the rough-looking hood.
I've got plans for it of course, and alot of work ahead of me!

You'll find this place to become your second home. There's tons of information, friends, parts, .... and so much more.

What a slick '66! Be sure to post your progress in your own build thread in the 60-66 Message Board. Best of luck with the project!

Thanks for the responses! The 60-66 section is actually what brought me to the board, over from the H.A.M.B.
Currently I'm relocating my stop/turns from the tailgate bracket into the fenders where the reverse lights should be, then tackling some bodywork/finishing issues before I repaint.
Then its time for a little more motor work.
