Im going to be getting hot and heavy with my '70 short fleet in the near future but wanted to get some input from you all before I started buying parts. Any pros/cons or preferred vendors for any of the following would be appreciated.
(Im going with a late model engine/trans.) 1) Relocated fuel tank 2) All new A/C package 3) One piece Windows 4) Auto Tilt column 5) Rear disc brakes 6) Wood bed kit 7) New guages Thanks for your input!

Re: '70 build up opinions
Alright Glock, I will post some pices of my parts and pieces as soon as my wife gets back in town with the digital camera. Its slow going right now...you sure can tell who your friends are when you need help!
As far as budget is concerned do you guys think it would be better to go with a clean reconditioned auto tilt column or one from say ididit or similar?
