The reason I'm Out of Money
 

Hello,
I have had my '72 Cheyenne in the shop for some touch ups. Of course one thing led the the other…..you know the story. Its finally out of the take apart stage and into the assembly part…..finally. Cheers.

That is one hell of a power plant you got there.

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money
 

I don't really like plain looking engines like that, you should add a little chrome to it.
















:lol:

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money

Yea,
I purchased the truck for my wife. She likes long beds. However as the process continued it turned into more of a show truck. I bought her a '68 VW beetle that she loves and the truck is more mine now. I would rather it be a short bed. Thought about cutting the bed down as others have done but the labor involved would made it cheeper for me to purchase from LMC. I don't weld. And while I'm at it why not put in a wood bed…….etc…..

Wells it's definitely beautiful. Keep up the good work and good luck on finding a money tree.

Nice truck. Is that a perfect fit Be Cool? How does is fit, given they call their line "perfect fit". Thanks!

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money
 

Love what you are doing!

What headers are those? Thanks

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money
 

Be Cool radiator was not put in by me but I dont think they had any problems with it. the small round caps covering the fan motors had to be removed as one was hitting the AC.

Cheers.

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money
 

VERY nice truck build!

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money
 

moving along very slowly. here are the latest photos
Grill work, window glass starting, fender work, bed cover painted.

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money
 

Very nice.

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money
 

Very nice work. Your truck is a work of art. I did notice the headlight bezels are swapped. Notice the adjusting indentions for putting a screw driver in the adjusting screws. What kind of seats are you putting in?

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money
 

appreciate the insight. will post photos of the seats when installed. I would rather have stock buckets though.
cheers.

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money
 

Few changes since last post. grill/bumper installed. Classic instruments view. Bed painted. Just need to get it on the frame and order the driveshaft. Cheers.

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money
 

Looking vey slick so far. The motor looks good with all the red paint!!

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money
 

Man, that's some truck!

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money
 

The paint is actually Inferno Orange. Same as used on new Camaro's.
Cheers.

Re: The reason I'm Out of Money
