I Picked This Up Yesterday

Since I sold the Suburban I had some money burning a hole in my pocket… It’s a ’67 Panel that originally had a 6 cyl and three on the tree. It has some mods but I’m good with that. I’m thinking a 383 and 700r4 for a driveline and I have a complete air ride system that I have been saving for the “right” truck. I think this is it….

Awesome Loc Doc! Can't wait to see the build progress.

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

Looks like someone else started that project first

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

Very cool!! Looks like the reverse lights have been shaved. Looks good.

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

I cant wait to see what you do with this one ,very nice rig .

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

Nice one .......

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

Looks like someone has put alot of work into that..

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

Thanks guys, I have already started tinkering on it. I have a completely rebuilt '76 front cross member with dropped spindles I have decided to put under it.

Yes, The guy I bought it from had the work done and drove it quite a bit before he moved here from New Mexico.

Yes, and the tail lights have been frenched (molded into the body), rolled pans front and rear, louvered hood and a few other mods.

They sure have, and they did a nice job on it too.

Nice find, it'll cool to watch this one

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

Cool panel!
Looks like it has some 6- lug 15x8 rear wheels also.

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

Almost bought a 4wd 70 panel a few days ago, just didn't fly with the wife having a few projects in the yard already. To bad for me, that is a cool panel you picked up.

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

I know you will make it good, but I hope you put some bumpers on it =)

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

Kind of nice and smooth without the bumpers though.

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

Looks good, Leon. I suppose now you'll be spending all your time in the shop instead of on here. :lol:

It does look nice without the bumpers.

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

Cool panel! Cant wait to see how it progresses.

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

And I did not go out of the house yesterday, just my luck!!!

Thanks for the compliments gents, I am going to work on it some today.

I didn't even notice the wheels Keith, glad you mentioned it.

Mark, I think the rolled pans would have to be removed to do that, but I may put some old school Hot Rod nerf bars on it. Something like on the '32 in the picture might look good. We'll see

Tinker, you need to get out more...:)

Well, I got the front cross member swapped out today. It's really easy with no engine and trans in it.... It is completely rebuilt but the guy I got it from had it sitting outside for a while... I think I am going to put 6 lug rotors on it so I didn't worry about the rust for now.

2 problems here. First you can't post a wanted to buy unless you are a subscribing member. ($15 or $25 a year) Second, 250 I6 stands will not fit a 292. The 292 stands are different and can be hard to find. Your best bet would be to become a subscribing member (Click on the word "Subscribe" in the menu bar at the top of this page for info) then post a "wanted to buy" on the parts for sale board.

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

Looking good Leon, Your getting right at it too!!!

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

very nice! I'm not diggin the roll pans and shaved reverse lights, glad to hear you're gonna change that. Keep us updated!

Re: I Picked This Up Yesterday
 

I'm not sure where you read that I was going to change the rolled pans and lights. I replied to CG that the rolled pans would have to be removed to put bumpers on it but I don't plan on doing that. I kind of like it the way it is, but I'm old school that way.....;)
