another bagged 67

bought this 67 GMC 3/4 long bed about a year ago. been lurking around checking out different project, collecting ideas, finnlay decided to start my own build thread. here what I started with. just wanted to convert to 5 lug and lower it a little but after seeing so many other projects kept going lower and lower and stealling other guys ideas.

Re: another bagged 67

did not catch that.. dont matter. these are old pics.. back tracking showing what all I have done and redone. ended up ditching the trailing arm idea.

Re: another bagged 67

this pretty much brings me up to date.. 14 months worth of work... will be picking up drop spindles and disc brake kit this wekkend. CPP is really close to me. hope fully I get time to put the front end together so I can get a rolling chassis and mock everything together so I can burn everything in..

I like the wood raised floors...I was only asking because I see some that just use tonneau covers or don't cover the backhalf/their notches at all
