Re: Blake's 67 GMC stepside build
Well finally got the old girl out side to see what she looks like in the sun...

Pic #2. another view.

Pic #3. was able to track down the needed parts to finish up the front end,and per usual it was Not a direct bolt on! Had to modify the upper mounts for the bumper to get it to bolt up correctly.

Pic #4. I started off getting the shifter all mounted up and then moved on to the console,this was the basic shape.

Pic #5. The 2 holes on the right side will be for cup holders I will custom make the ign. switch is on the lower left and the A/C vent installed. Then I started to make the template for the side panels.
The top of the console will have round bar welded to it and the side panels will mount behind this to give it a bit of a reveal.

Re: Blake's 67 GMC stepside build
Speaking of projects...this is John's Mustang (the 49 dodge truck is his also)
It was brought in because someone trashed the rear end...

Pic #2. This was the view from under the car as it was pulled in.

Pic #3. Here is the 3rd member removed and as you can see it was Severely ragged on!!!

Pic #4. There was several teeth sheared from the ring gear.

Story has it someone "borrowed the car" and this was the end result!!
I know it's only an 8" verses the 9" rear end but it takes alot of abuse to do this.

That is a shame. I couldn't stand doing that to my own car much less some one else's. Like they were trying to hurt it...
