Cool build, stock everything. That truck is full of options too. That junk on the trans will come off easy with dry ice blasting, and no damage or pitting on the case.

Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build
Dropped the cab off at the media blasters and just picked it up so let the fun begin. I was happy to see the cab corners were nice but there was a few dents I didn't know about. At least the expensive stuff is done, now its just time.

Nice job on the motor and trans sitting in the frame. All numbers matching too
Cab came out clean. Shouldn't be long for primer.

Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build
If you don't mind me asking how much did it cost to blast and coat the cab? I'm wanting to do the same.

Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build
Nice work man! The frame looks great. I'm in the process of installing my brake lines and I was wondering if you would mind showing some pictures of how the lines are routed from the back to the front and across the frame at the front. It would help me a lot. Thanks.

It was 410 to do the cab with primer and sandblasting.

Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build
I have just been working on floors and welding in patch panels. Glad I took the rockers off as the main door pillar was rotted on the drivers side, passenger side was great. Found a rodent nest inside both rockers also, just something to help out the corrosion.

More floor work and welding, learning on the fly., Also ordered some aftermarket rockers but the contour sucked and they were a 1/4" long so decided to fix mine.

Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build
More floor work, at least this part is cheap and just requires wire, time and grinding discs.

Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build
The patching looks great, man. I know what you mean about the rockers. I was able to use one of mine but the other was too far gone to patch and I had a terrible time getting the aftermarket one to fit right. It might have been less trouble to patch and reuse the old one even though it was in bad shape. I could still use a couple of pics of the brake line routing, especially at the front. Keep up the good work.

I've been looking at the Coker tires, have a set of Dayton 7.00-15 on my 65 now. Very happy with them but need to start looking to replace. Thanks

Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build
Spent a few hours grinding and cleaning up some spots. Practice has certainly helped as it gets easier the more I do. It's amazing how much work some hackery shifter hole cut caused. I must have 16 hours in that tunnel piece. I guess there was some rust that had to be fixed anyways.
