Two months passed by since my last post of progress. Went back home for two weeks and then slowly start working back on truck. Cab and front clip are ready for painting, firewall is painted already to get idea how it will look like when done. Still debating white top or not. Well; debating to go white only on roof top or white as they were from factory. What do you think guys? Which would look better? Comments welcome. Section around grille and tailgate lettering will be white also.
Had to make rear cab mount due to my frame is out of 67+ truck. Could just buy one but forget to do it on time and it would not arrive soon enough... Cab was painted satin black under floor and covered with 3M undercoating for added protection from road usage before placing back on frame. Puzzle finally starting to get in place.
It should sit around 8" high measured from ground to bottom of cab rocker panel when rear tires are changed for something smaller and wider
. Rear are now 4" taller in diameter then stock size in front and truck is leaning forward and the look of it is not my favorite but will have to do untill christmas or good CL deal
