Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK
I see a 400 badge on there. This would be perfect for a 402 LS2 powerplant!

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK
Wow it took you since last year to duct tape a piece of metal to teh fire wall! And you started out so well!!
 Happy NewYear you are off to a great start on that truck. The first out side pic looked great but as well all know it is whats on the inside that causes all the work. Are you going with new bed sides or are you going to cut down the long bed sides? Kevin LFD Inc. |

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK
the bedsides will be good solid (fingerscrossed) orignal shortbed ones....with new aftermarket tubs, cross seals, (possibly) front bed pnl, and a nice wooden bed......it has a nice longbed that im sure 71HULK will post it for sell, if he chooses..
SLAMMED1 thats what we'll be doing too, i agree it doesnt look right just left un-symetrical....we'll also be capping the wire gutter, like rokcrln does (but not a 45* slant) |

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK
Nice ride killer71,my 72 would have been decked out like yours with all the stock trim and all but a small accident of me backing my Jeep Wagoneer into the frt of the truck and ruining a pristine 72 grille shell beyond repair. I found a 68 complete frt clip rust free for 50.00 when the 71/72 outer shells at the time were well over 300.00 alone. Yours is done very nicely,props to you.
68shortstep, that truck was a 25 footer for sure after seeing the damage you found........the on the trailer picture made the truck look like it was a cherry.

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK
Hey who's in charge of the shop grounds...I don't like all of that clutter over there on the left! Tell the boss to get it cleaned up so we'll have room for some parts!

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK
new custom interior, late model SUV guage cluster, GPS, DVD, 8" touchscreen monitor, with a few more cool features....still desiding what powerplant we're getting, but leaning towards either the L92 6.2L/
6l80e or the LS7 7.0L with either the 4l60e or 6l80e trans.... it'll have all the creature comforts (heat, A/C, sound system or should i say mobile entertainment center) colors will be two tone, orangeish/ white.......and some SWEET wheels ( ill keep that a secret till they're on).....hope i didnt spill too much... |
