<br>
Now I this painted dash cluster is temp...Im not 100% on which panel I want so I just painted this to match interior.

ohhhh, this one I like....



As soon as I bolt down the seat, put that bracket on the steering colum (on inside of firewall) I should be able to give her a test drive....

Im sooooo excited! I wish there was one more day in this weekend...

Re: 67 coming alive....she's almost there!

You will need to resize the photos to post on here. It seems to work better if you upload the pics to the site rather than use photobucket.

It is in the advanced options when you post a reply to a thread.

Try using a photo editing program like Photoshop or Picture Publisher. I am sure there are others, but I use Picture Publisher from Corel.

Also you may want to post a thread in the "projects and build section" if you plan on posting more pics.

Looking good, can't wait to see more! Gotta love the '67's!

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: 67 coming alive....she's almost there!

Ok here we go....










I still have a ways to go, but I know you guys can appreciate my EXCITEMENT to be able to just drive her down the road!

I have a few things to work out. The guy I bought it from started the one-piece window swap on the right side and the little piece in the front doesnt fit right. So either I need to figure that out or swap back over to the vent window. Then I need to get it back to my upholstery guy to do the door panels. Im just trying to decide if I want to just make them plain or throw a bowtie or something on there. Oh crap, I could go on and on....

I told my girlfriend that I wasnt going to buy wheels/tires until I needed tires but man my baby needs some new shoes!

Maybe I do need to start a build/projects page...hahaha I said I was going to drive it like this for a while, but I know you guys know how that goes! I've been dating my girlfriend for 4 yrs and have the money to buy her a ring but maybe we can put an engagement off another 4 yrs while I complete my truck! hahaha Hopefully I rememeber to NOT show her this post!
