Lime Wife's 67 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hubscrub · 05-30-2010, 09:59 AM

So i decided to start a build thread on the 67, that will be my wife's truck to drive. We bought it and decided to let her build it the way she wanted but i am doing most of the work

Hubscrub · 05-30-2010, 10:04 AM

I took the interior out and started cleaning the floorboards and painted them they were in good shape notice the rockers and bottom of pass. door where replace by the po

Hubscrub · 05-30-2010, 10:10 AM

i put the carpet and the seat in and she said i don't like the red interior so i that will be changed lol

Hubscrub · 05-30-2010, 10:21 AM

I got the motor to run for about 30 second poorly though and the wireing was a mess. Then i found out that the oil was getting water in it so i decided just to pull the motor, hauled it to my dads and got it out

Hubscrub · 05-30-2010, 10:24 AM

so i had a long winter with no real progress

Hubscrub · 05-30-2010, 10:26 AM

got some small parts painted, and built a small harness to move the wiper switch over like in later models

Hubscrub · 06-19-2010, 11:41 PM

well still didn't get the hood back on

but i did get one small thing done today, started painting the heads on her motor. Well i started painting them a couple weeks ago and i got one painted orange and she told me she wanted her motor a different color so i got it sanded again and such and she got me some paint and...... i also got the headlight adjuster screws put in and the little springs

yea, turbo 350 i don't know who did the conversion but i have a few things to check in rearend area some of the work i think i will double check

but the shifter thats in it is just a cheap-o and it sucks i think a lokar will be far superior to that thing the truck was a striaght six and three on the tree factory (nothing wrong with that i like em) but its been a 350/350 combo for as long as i have known the truck and i here ya on the rain there is a chance all next week, i need a garage it suck working on the dirt

but i'm glad i'm able to work

oldblue1968chevy · 05-30-2010, 08:48 PM

I have a garage, and my truck is sitting outside a garage

but the garage is so full of crap i cant get my truck in it to work LOL

and I dont have a gas tank in it to drive it to my house to work

Hubscrub · 05-30-2010, 08:56 PM

yea i here ya i go out to my dads where 90% of my stuff is and i have to move something out to get mine in the garage to do something i do all my major work there

oldblue1968chevy · 05-30-2010, 09:08 PM
