Re: '67 Short Step #2
I finally finished my side mount spare tire...I decided it looks best on the passenger side though.

Re: '67 Short Step #2
That is the kind of spare kit that will be REALLY useful down here in Mississippi and Louisanna.

Re: '67 Short Step #2
You know a spare tire isn't even an option on some of the new Hybrid vehicles. All you get is a small compressor and can of fix-a-flat! Not even kidding.

Re: '67 Short Step #2
No real progress. I wanted to finish the bedwood but I haven't had the time yet. I have no idea what blue bat is. This is all I could come up with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Blue_Bat

Re: '67 Short Step #2
kyull67,... I saw your truck at the Midwest All Truck Nats yesterday. Looks nice! What kind of gas mileage are you getting of of the six cylinder?

Re: '67 Short Step #2
Kyle, it was great meeting with you, and the truck looks awesome. I was wanting to ask the same question that lolife99 did, what kind of MPG are you getting?
And... you should know, racking up over 900+ miles in three months... ![]()

Re: '67 Short Step #2
I actually haven't really calculated that yet. I know that it's at least 15 mpg but I suspect that not having a bed floor creates some drag and takes some away from that. Also the 3:73's and four speed don't help much either. I'll try and figure it out on the way back to Springfield this morning.

Re: '67 Short Step #2
Next time you'll have to bring your dog, he would have enjoyed the show!
Glad to see that you're not scared to put some miles on that thing, because that's why we build them! ![]()

Re: '67 Short Step #2
Great looking truck, I'm in the process of starting a long box 67 and I'll be following your mold pretty closely. I'll focus less on the motor, and a bit more on the chassis and driveability (it'll be a daily)
Oh, and I tought you might like my kicks today ![]() Last edited by brendonak; 09-29-2008 at 06:28 PM. |
