Progress pics on the 69
 

Stopped by the body shop and got some pics last week. Took a little work to get all of the bucket seat brackets correct. Slowly but surely...
Found a few pin holes in the lower driver door and had to weld a patch in it.

Looking Good:metal:
Will you leave the floor-pan painted?
Or will you undercoat it?

Nice progress can’t wait to see color on it!

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

Great progress. Bet that feels good. Getting the cab done is a giant step

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

That is looking really nice Eric!

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

Just going to paint it similar to a chassis black.

Thanks

Thanks leon

Hopefully soon...

Been years in the making so far. Seems overboard for a driver.

Thanks ryan.

Looks Good...........There is nothing like good body work and nice paint!!!

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

Thanks, this guy turns out some great work, but there is nothing quick about it...

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

Been awhile, but some progress is being made...

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

Starting to put a few things back in place and sorting through years worth of collecting. I am sure i will find doubles on some things...

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

I didnt even know you were having one done, I need to pay better attention. Its really looking great!

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

Sometimes its hard to keep track of which one i am tinkering on. This one has been in the works for MANY years...

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

That’s going to be sweet Eric!

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

I noticed it's siblings in the background.
Also an automatic truck. You going to stay with the THM-350 or going overdrive?
Buckets to boot. I love the bucket seat trucks.

Looks like a very sweet ride.

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

Hope i live long enough to see it through... If i would quit bringing other ones home...

There are a few siblings around here. I am sticking with the TH350. I switched from 3:73s to 3:07s and with a 33" tire i think it will be a decent cruiser.
And yes, all of the correct bucket seat brackets are in place.
Thanks.

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

Looking great!!

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

Still making some progress on things. Just cleaning up an old 68 327 i had for the time being.. Will probably have an engine built later down the road.
Evidently going from a rockwell to a 205 is not a bolt in and go process. That got quite involved.
Found a cool old trans pan also... (pic 1)

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

Looking good!

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

That 327 will be a good power plant. Everything looks good

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

Yeah, I agree. Use the 327 for now and when you are ready to replace it, rebuild it!

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

What’s with the holes in the trans pan?

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

For cooling the oil.

Re: Progress pics on the 69
 

Old school cooling the tubes alow the fluid to be cooled . It's cool :lol: but a new style will cool much better
