Drove the '67 today
Well I got the '67 running and rolling today. I went to the junkyard on saturday and got the control arms and spindle. Put in the radiator and suspension stuff saturday night and fired it today. Drove it around the block, seems to roll reasonably straight considering the bent frame. Hopefully get her to the frame shop this week.
It was a little depressing to drive it in this condition after driving it when it was so much nicer. I suppose its better than not driving it at all though. I'll see if I can get a pic after work on monday.

it is kinda rewarding to have the truck operable tho couple weeks youll have the frame done and it will be back to normal
