Well I couldnt help it, I bought another one

67 short wide, panoramic view, 4.5" front Z, 500ci Caddy engine / TH400, shaved firewall, some custom tube work, & a bunch of goodies to go with it

It looks like you have a very bad case of Chevyietis and the only cure is to use Iatraliptic.

LOL That looks like a sweet project!

Spray-Bomb · 10-21-2008, 12:18 AM

Thanks bro

I have always wanted a pretty custom truck & now I have one a truck that is a good starting point for that

For the most part I like what has already been done, do all I gotta do is add to what is done

nuke1 · 10-21-2008, 12:27 AM

Juat to inform you, i think you are missing a little something something on the hind end there, just my thoughts, lol

Spray-Bomb · 10-21-2008, 12:32 AM

Eh, who needs a rear frame anyway

Ummm. My GF. If she didn't have one, she wouldn't be my GF for very long.
Just MHO.
BTW, you didn't specify 'truck(s)'.

On the other hand, "Nice score, Dood!"

Longhorn Man · 10-21-2008, 05:24 AM

dude, get me some under hood pics... I wanna see how they did all the caddy stuff. Is it a custom hand made frame up under there?

my67chevytruck · 10-21-2008, 08:17 AM

the bug bit you again. I saw this one on CL. looks like a good one to finish up. so what you gonna do with KILLER now..... KILL him? Good luck....

67ChevyRedneck · 10-21-2008, 08:34 AM

Yes, yes you are, but you're in good company

**special-K** · 10-21-2008, 08:54 AM

That`s a cool project.How much more framework does it need?That looks like skilled work from here.

67ChevyRedneck · 10-21-2008, 08:56 AM

Almost forgot, did it come with a bed? swb or long? Looks like a shorty?

Spray-Bomb · 10-21-2008, 09:07 AM

Thanks guys, more pics coming soon

Andy, it has a highly modified frame & it has been relieved for the engine to set down pretty far, its also about 6" back from stock SBC location

Its a SWB & it has some fleet bed sides that came with it, but one is pretty much toast, so that leaves me with basically one bedside
I plan to put a step side on it

As far as the frame work already done, from what I has seen of it its pretty good, there is a lil more bracing to do & some mounts to build for stuff & then build a back half for it

suville · 10-21-2008, 09:07 AM

Id be interested in the engine swap details also, I've done two Cad BB swaps so far and used all GM parts to make it a bolt in deal but its always interesting to see how others have addressed the challenge!

ChevLoRay · 10-21-2008, 10:46 AM

No nosebleed whenever you get to where you can drive it.....Nice score. I'm guessing you saved a bunchabucks over what it would have cost you to build it to the same point. Thats the nice thing about unfinished projects.

Spray-Bomb · 10-21-2008, 01:47 PM

Heres some pics for yall

sgaylord · 10-21-2008, 01:51 PM

That is some pretty cool fab work.

Spray-Bomb · 10-21-2008, 01:53 PM

Put some hinges on the door so it didnt have to be taped on

Spray-Bomb · 10-21-2008, 01:55 PM

Took the front clip off to and it all down & get some paint on it so it doesnt rust

72BlckButy · 10-21-2008, 02:27 PM

Looks like some good fab work on the front of the frame.

Nice score!

67ChevyRedneck · 10-21-2008, 02:52 PM

That sucker is FUEL INJECTED? Friggin' sweet!

Don't hurt yourself with that cadzilla!

Nice stock Caddy motor. The 76 EFI was an interesting animal.
