Tomorrow the fun starts
I will be in SC by 8:30am tomorrow then its off to my brothers shop to spend four days working on the new project, a 69 two wheel drive LB. Need to figure out what to do about the engine, where the one starter bolt goes they broke the block. New brake lines all the way around, adding a PB booster. Spending some time inside the cab cleaning and seeing what I bought. Need to buy a battery. Going to be busy four days for sure. Ill post some pictures tomorrow, its going to be a DD.

Re: Tomorrow the fun starts
The July issue of Popular Hot Rodding has an article on block welding. I would advise you to check that out first. You just might ruin that block for good if you try and weld it as is. Just sayin...

Re: Tomorrow the fun starts
Pictures from a yard that has over 70 67-72 chevy gmc trucks. Got a good seat with all belts and visors to recover. He has a real nice Crome bumper and grill for $200 that I am going to buy. Many complete trucks, just about any part he has. Just a local guy who decided to buy old trucks. Even has a few newer trucks with 5.3 for donor engines. I found the mother load!
