Re: first chevy; my 66 stepper
thanks guys! well i plan on doing the bags all around, step notch, cupped lca's (probably a z) drop spindles and power disk brake. the body work is a must but im focusing on the suspension first. i think for paint i will end up going with a primer red (love the color of f'n'low's 69) and maybe a khaki roof. ill be going with white walls and the truck came with another set of wheels already. and oh yeah, the motor is just an inline 6 with manual 4 on the floor. but the previous owner worked at a local muffler shop so it purrrrsss like a kitten. and i got the truck, 4 new wheels and tires, and a new roof in reallly good condition for $1950.
so that being said i have some questions for you experts.
1.What is the simplest way to move that fuel tank out of my cab?
2.the truck currently has manual drum brakes. when i do drop spindles i know i need to convert to disk brakes, my question is will manual disk brakes suffice? does that even make any sense? or when i grab the brakes and rotors from my local junk yard should i also grab a master cylinder?
3. where is the best website to buy rubber weatherstripping for my truck? ie; window seals & doors seals.
thanks in advance for the advice and thanks for showin so much love towards the rusty ole girl! and btw she was a 21st birthday gift to myself.
