[kernalklink]

I haven't been on in a while and thought you all would like to look at what i got going on - it's nothing spectacular but it is going nicely. I pulled the engine from my 76 scottsdale - 350 - i had it rebuilt for about 1000 miles and then the tranny went out in the truck - i found this 67 and moved on. it was my father in laws truck - original 283 truck (under the bench now) - posi rear 4spd rockwell t221 transfer case dana 44 in front pretty sad shape when i got it - but it ran(poorly) and everything worked good - father in law replaced the rockers and corners some time ago, but he got them pretty crooked, since its still solid i'm just going to drive it for now - doors close pretty hard.. i pulled the box and pitched it - sanded and primmered and cleaned it up a bit - should be able to drive it again this week or next.


This is the day i drug it home

the engine - it ran but smoked more than i did in college!

it had a orage interior but father in law painted it red... - so i covered it with black

first primer color test - rustoleum rusty metal red primer wins -

pulled the engine -

pulled off the box - rusted beyond... - and notice both leafs ar broke right in front of the axel... bummer

primed the rest of the cab - didnt fix the dents because then it wont matter as much if it happens again that way

finally replaced the leaf springs - had to special order them for this truck - pricey!

painted the frame and cab bottom - all flat paint - ill probably undercoat most of it with rubber undercoating

a bad picture of my interior - i will have to get a better pic because it looks way nicer than this looks
