Norwegian 69 Short Step
Hi there!
This is/was a plane jane, with an inline six and a 3-spd manual. Plans are to do a static drop, upgrade to disc brakes, power steering etc. Motor will be a ī88 Corvette TPI and a 700R4 tranny. Bjorn Tore |

Re: Norwegian 69 Short Step
Here are some pics during disassembly. Great news, it turned out to be near rust free.

Re: Norwegian 69 Short Step
Here's a good build thread on another '69,... that's the same color.

Re: Norwegian 69 Short Step
Thanks, it came out fine. Really like your choice of motor, the 302 is my favorite. The TPI that Iīm putting in is in fact the engine that was in a ī69 Z/28 Camaro that I had som years ago. I was then able to track down the original 302 and I still have it Itīs not the original DZ-block, but a 4-bolt 010 from ī71. The guy who bought the Z/28 pulled out the TPI and sold it to me. So itīs all goes in circles...

Re: Norwegian 69 Short Step
Finally got my kit of stainless steel brakelines and park brake cables from Inline Tubes. This was going to be a enjoyable plugīnīplay weekend. -Guess what, almost nothing did fit, and the new clips did fall off the frame.

Re: Norwegian 69 Short Step
Here is the hinge after blasting and yellow cromatizing (donīt know what itīs called in the US...) they look more "bling" on the photo than in real life.
After installing discbrakes, the lug-bolts are too short. The front is wider than rear, what do you guys do to compensate for this? -longer bolts and spacers? Also showing my Ron Davis radiator, whitch is a piece of art, and a direct fit without any fab. Last pic is a Photoshop drop of the truck, as I hope it will look when finished. Happy New Year to all! |
