Has anyone done a '68 T221 swap into a '67? I'm thinking I might be cutting sheet-metal on the floor, but idk.
The beauty of this truck is, because you already have engine and trans out, you don't have to worry about draining the radiator, so there is really no reason why you can not remove the front clip. clip only takes about 40 minutes to take off, and it is worth it. just pull the wiring block at the firewall, and disconnect the ground strap from the fender, about 12-15 bolts and it's off, in one piece i might add.
it will save you a lot of headache while installing the motor and trans
