My new project '67 short stepside

[bonuts]

I should have started a journal when I started doing my truck 6 months ago when I finally talked my dad into letting the truck go. My dad restored the truck 15 years ago, just did the body replacing cab corners and rockers and painted it viper yellow. Left it stock otherwise drum brakes no power anything, a 283 and 3 on the column. The truck has sat for 10 years since he bought his dream car (1970 mercury cyclone spoiler) and built my mom a '39 Pontiac street rod.

In the last 6 months the truck has got disc brakes, swapped to 5 bolt, lowered 5.5/7 with c-notch of course and new everything on chassis with paint. Stripped the body to bare metal as I cant stand all that yellow. Very rust free truck just had to replace one rear fender. I had a fresh 327 built and added a Muncie 4 gear to go in this week. Nothing special engine wise, just want a daily driver for the summer as I have a pretty wild pickup already. The truck wont see the road until next year because the work will be slowing Down drastically once it gets hot out. Oh and it got a pretty set of 20" colorado custom wheels too.

Once I figure out how to post multiple pictures in one post I will add the stuff I've done recently with the engine and body like the anodizing my buddy did on the engine parts and frenching lights into the rollpan.

This is how I sits right now. I will post up some of the work that's been done soon
