Yeah it's ugly now.........
 

BUT tomorrow I start tearin' it apart. The next time it is in one piece it will be a thing of beauty. Wish me luck, and thanks in advance for answering the huge amount of questions I will be asking during this project. :D

Good luck, sorry I won't be much help

Look's like a pretty clean start just pace your self so you don't get burned out....Last time my truck was on the road was 2-1-00 had to buy a blazer cause I missed driving my truck.....

Looks like a pretty good starting point... you're lucky to have the time & place (and everything else!) to tackle a frame-off! :D

Doesn't look all that bad right now. Good luck man.

That truck looks pretty straight and solid....great place to start a frame-off from :). What are your plans for it?

Re: Yeah it's ugly now.........
 

Truck looks good already! You cant have an ugly 67-68. Just those other years can be ugly ;) ;) haha All you need to do is paint it all one color and lower it and you are SET! ;0

Have fun with it!

I can relate....But as others have said it looks good now. To be really ugly you must add a few more colors to the mix.

Well I didn't get a lot done to the truck Sunday. After picking up the new compressor and sand blaster, then wiring up the 220 all I did was pull the diff cover. It has posi :cool: but 4.11 gears, I was hoping for 3.73 or at least a 3 series carrier. Hopefully I'll have time before this weekend to get the bed and front end off.

Been a while since I've posted. Went looking at some old threads. Including this one.

How's the truck coming along? Let's see some pics!

Got any progress pictures?

Re: Yeah it's ugly now.........
 

I would assume that since we have not heard anything about this truck in 5 years it is propably sold, sitting unfinished in a back yard, or finished along time ago. It could also be a combination of 2 out of 3

Re: Yeah it's ugly now.........
 

WOW... 5 years later. It's been drivable (NOT finished)for about 2 years, but it mostly just sits in the driveway. I went to a local car show in late Sept. and it really got me mad that my truck STILL wasn't ready. SO, I just gutted the cab, ordered up sound deadener and carpet. I'm picking up $600 in mostly interior parts from BROTHERS TRUCKS when I head out to Cali next week. After that it's just minor body work, paint and wheels. I'll try to find some more recent pics.
