Cool. Good choice! I see that truck all the time around the Spring/Tomball area. My freinds at Stereo FX installed the sound system so I got to look the truck over really close....alot of work went into it.

Just when you feel like you are making a little progress one of these "finished product" type of guys drops by to rub it in your face!! My freind Rick was out for a spin in his 69' and dropped by to check out the projects. His car is immaculate so I wanted to share.

Nice Camaro! how are you progressing on the truck?

Slick67 · 07-27-2009, 03:22 PM

I bought some 4 wheel drive front brake lines, which may be too long, but put them on the calipers anyway. I also purchased some 1980 Corvette shocks thinking they would work easily as a drop shock for our trucks, they do work, but you have to take the bushings out and swap them end to end. During this process I managed to stop a screwdriver with my palm......it felt great. I got the front shocks mounted, and they work great, but still have to do the back ones. I also cut down my rear shock mounts so I could flip them and use them on the opposite sides as shock relocators. That was not too difficult, just took about 40 minutes. What did all of you do this weekend????

That's my plan. Scuff the POR15 on the frame and paint it with Chassis Black, may do a couple of other parts with whatever I have left....like the core support. Hope the weather holds out, looks like rain here.

my67chevytruck · 07-31-2009, 01:55 PM

yep i should probably have my son scuff and paint the core support as well,. I 'll check back Monday for updates!

Uh ho. Now I have someone watching to see if I do anything this weekend. But I will be watching for your updates too!! The bottom fell out of the bucket just a few minutes ago, hope it all clears out for tomorrow!!

Slick67 · 08-03-2009, 10:45 AM

Weekend progress was good, the weather cooperated! Removed the bed again and pulled all of the e-brake goodies off the frame and cleaned them and painted all the little parts. Pulled the shocks back off and decided to paint them a different color too. I dropped the rearend and decided to go ahead and paint over the POR15 on my frame to give it a cleaner look. After scuffing the entire frame and masking the airbags and hoses and grease fittings (well, my girlfreind did the masking) I pulled out the paint gun and shot the frame Gloss Black.

Por15, then scuffed it with Scotchbrite pads then I used a cheap premixed automotive paint off the shelf from O'Reilly. The finished product looks pretty good I have to admit. Thanks for the compliments!

my67chevytruck · 08-03-2009, 03:33 PM

Think i want you to repaint my frame.

VA72C10 · 08-03-2009, 03:47 PM

Nice work. I plan on painting my frame with spray bomb as well. I'm gonna use rustoleum hammered finish.

The hammered finish looks cool!

Slick67 · 08-17-2009, 03:46 PM

I got the frame back together and put the front shocks back on. This weekend was spent sanding, fenders, hood, doors, grill preparing them for the second coat of primer and epoxy primer. I'll put the pics up tomorrow. Here is one of the frame back together with the e-brake lines and front shocks back on. Also got the motor mount brackets on and the trans x-member bolted down.
