help 911 my 65 needs medical advise
My names Justin and im from lenoir city TN .Here is my plans for my truck.it's a swb 65 step side with a 350.here's what's good about the truck. It's appearance would fool you as what it has going for it.the motor is from a 99 Chevy 350 the vortec with the Center bolt valve covers.it has a late model fuse box,brand new radiator with Electric fan.unlike most cars/trucks im owned this one isn't ran to a toggle switch/battery.it has a relay and temp sensors.has a oil cooler,Trans cooler
Flat black the right way with a satin red top.red rims, lowered,All the rust repaired,wooden bed with chrome strips,gas tank relocated to rear frame,lose the seats for a tuck and roll bench seat or throw a Mexican blanket over a bench seat and do it like a ratrod. Do some pin stripes on the back tell gate after getting it smoothed out and a roll pan on. Relocate the tail lights in the bed some how. I'd like to make the exhaust exit from the sides on the humps on the bed.clean up the engine bay some. I'm still looking for a place that sells parts for the truck.I thought year one did but I was wrong sadly. I did however find classicindustrial.com . Im looking for legit place that sells parts for a reasonable price.I'm going to have a lot more questions on this project. I have a few questions on this build. 1st) Im going to relocate the tank between the frame rails using a fuel cell from summit/jegs.can someone give me a part number to which tank I need with the correct measurements so it will bolt between the rails. 2nd) does anyone know if any late model truck seats will bolt right in without drilling in the floor or fabbing mounts. RANDOM QUESTIONS can someone post a pic with the above mods on a similar truck so I can have a idea of what it's going to look like.I have looked and looked but havent had any luck. can anyone tell me if all 60-66 doors are the same because my passenger door is pretty much gone Im looking for some led's rear break lights if anyone has a good site and can someone post a pic of their gauge cluster all restored modded some with like auto meter gauges so I can get an idea. I got that I need a 71-72 rear end for a direct bolt on swap for a 5 lug. I got that I need 67-72 front rotors for the 5 lugs but Im confused a little.does the drums have the studs on it because if it doesn't then I'll have to change more things then just the rotors . That's all I have for now but I'll have more later lol thanks for the help Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: help 911 my 65 needs medical advise
You wont find a direct bolt in seat that isnt factory, some guys, like me, have bolted in the seats from 201-2007 OBS silerados for the integrated seat belts. I like mine, you do need to put a backer plate under the floor for support. Look on this forum for the fuel tank, Boyd's Welding sells a real nice one and will bolt right in for a reasonable price.
I recommend using the vendors here on the forum, they will treat you right and will take good care of you. I have always used Classic Parts of America, have for 25 years. fair price and great customer service.
