I really like your 62 grill, I've been looking for one to put on this truck, might have to talk to your uncle he seems to be able to find anything.

BBW is just cool on a SWB

Just go to the suspension forum and just start checking out threads.

Cool. C-notch's are not high on my "get after it" list. I did mine first thing just to get it out of the way

[duallyjams]

The weather today was great and I was thinking what would Newfisher ( John ) do, check out his thread http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=597187 the dude must have ants in the pants as he does some type of upgrade every couple of hrs any way here's what I did today, changed the seat out to buddy buckets.The only thing that had to be changed was the center support, cut it off shorten it up and weld it back on.

[duallyjams]

Bought some steel wheels 15/6 and 15/8

changed out the caps, figure paint them black, wife said no way not happening don't even think about so guess I won't be changing out the wheels

oh by the way did I mention I bought another truck, well it will be a story for another day

I don't watch TV and Daughter is grown and gone. You can only walk the dogs around the block so many times before the neighbors think I'm stalking them.

Those seats look AWESOME!!!

Are they the 60-66 buckets or the 67-72?

[duallyjams]

GMC 66-68 Chevy 67-68 buddy buckets

Seats look good, but bummer on the wheels! I thought they looked good. Gotta make momma happy though! And the "new" truck looks like a nice find. It's almost identical to a '68 short/fleet my ex brother-in-law had, even down to the white spoke wheels.

[Bomp]

Sweet job on the buddy buckets.

Yah Hoooooooo, another one added to the collection.

[Muskwa]

Nice lookin' pickup! What size are the BFG tires on the rally rims? I love the look.

I've been thinking buddy buckets in my 65 would be nice. Now I know!
Those look great.

[clemdaddy]

just caught up on this thread and you are doing it right. taking on the projects and completing them one at a time so shes driving all along and using her truck as was intended. i don't think i will ever blow one apart again, way too much effort and way too long to get one ready to enjoy. thanks for that, you're doing it right.

Have had lol I only have my 60 stepper now. It's been in the family since the early 80's.

[1963c-10]

Nice progress and thanks for the link on the steering boxes. Looks like a nice product.

I have used them on friends truck also, they have the fastest turnaround and are top notch

[duallyjams]

Today is the first day of winter with a chilly 70 degree so I figured today would be a good day to finally get the c-notches done.
If you don't have a 4 post lift or a posse to help get the bed off this what I use

gonna have to do some alteration for the porter built c-notch to work with the no limit

old school I ain't got no fancy vise grips

drilling is easy with a hand held drill press

[duallyjams]

porterbuilt notches fit like a glove

I went with these as they looked to be the strongest

how many tools can you find

metal shaving every where

redneck christmas lights

[NEWFISHER]

Lovin the redneck xmas lights! I pipe notched mine and wish I had waited for the backorder to get my notches......so clean. I had the bed off and didn't want to keep pulling it. Nice bed lift, I need to score one of those. The twin post sucks to lift them off.
