My favorite 4 letter F word

F-R-E-E

67 SWB frame (use to be a stepper)....small block motor mounts, open rear end, and looks to be dimpled for PS, one-piece DS, spare tire carrier....(Also, gave me for FREE....2 67 doors, 67 hood, cowl, gas tank, step tailgate, 67 grill)...It's in pretty good shape

Yep....board member 'Stormrider' had to get this frame moved from where he was storing it, and told me if I wanted it to come get it!!!....I had to scramble:
1st...talked to the wifey about it....she wasn't thrilled, but after I told her the price, she quickly gave me the "look"!!!...Which I took as it is okay!!!
2nd...I had to call a buddy of mine with a trailer to see if he could help....check...it was no problem....
3rd...I had to figure out where to put it....I have a storage shed in my yard in my HOA'd neighborhood....knowing I could hide it behind there with out any issues, I did a little prep work and readied it for the frame....
4th...Picked her up yesterday, and rolled it around behind the shed....had to do it in the cover of night so the nosey neighbors wouldn't see us!!!
(I'll post up more pics of the free-bies behind the shed soon....it was too dark for pics last night)

I want to begin to assemble parts and pieces for this.....I'm thinking I want to build a 72 two-tone driver.....It'll probably be a LOOONNNGGGG time before
anything is done, but at least I have the start to my next project....

...thanks Deland!!!


Thanks guys....I'm hoping to continue the theme of F-R-E-E...
I'll be watching Craigslist to pick up parts here and there on the Cheap...
OR maybe I can trade some things I got for 72 stuff I need with some of you guys?!?!!?.....That would be so cool!!!

Re: My favorite 4 letter F word

Okay,

Finally got out to take some pics of the frame behind my shed....Looks okay definitely some rust but nothing a little sandblasting can't take care of....

Looking at the steering box, I assume the frame is dimpled for power steering??....I might as well get out the cutting wheel and get some of those brackets off too

Gonna put a tarp over it for now.....

What's a one piece DS? And Where are the pics of the sheet metal?
I think I just guessed DS...Driveshaft?
