Re: 67 Atomic Fuel

Started out with this ruff 67 but it had 500 in new parts so was worth the investment! Once i got the truck home the work started the next day! i stripped the truck alll the way down to the frame and swapped the 67 frame for a 71 for front disk and had a posi rearend. Once tore down i took the cab to the blaster and as you will see lots of cancer on the floor.

Re: 67 Atomic Fuel

I used the wilwood rear disc brake kit from CPP store off ebay, they had the best price, it had everything you need to install it, it dose not have e-brake though. CPP has some different kits with e-brake.

Re: 67 Atomic Fuel



Was playing with many colors to paint this truck, then in 08 we were at the Chevy dealer buying the wife her new SUV and there sat a new Atomic Orange Vette! I knew that was the color! so i had the body shop down the street splash some paint on it for me to get a better vision and i was sold on the color!
