"Almost Heaven" 67 - swb- Lilly

[rkintn_68]

My first build from ground up , I have been collecting parts for over a year .
I bought my chassis from a fellow board member , description :
" 72 chassis. Has been sand blasted, primed, and painted with semi glass implement paint. Finish looks great and is very durable. Everything is newly rebuilt, all Moog, AC Delco or Raybestos parts. CPP 4/6 drop kit all new, spindles, springs, ball joints, tie rods, adj. panhard rod, drop blocks, etc... (Everything is new!) Has cross drilled rotors front and rear (Astro front rotors on rear, new) with brand new Wilwood D52 calipers on all 4 corners. 3.08 open rear axle with weld on caliper brackets for the D52s. Rear axle has 50K original miles on it."
We will start with this 72 chassis and put a 67 all oem body except bed , have
not found a bed good enough yet and thinking about a new aftermarket 67
bed with no stake pockets ... Have to wait and see what happens !!!
Would love some opinions on the wheel size ? Thinking about 17x8 front 4.5 BS-- 18 x 9.5 back 5 " BS ... Will start the brake line plumbing next ...
