Here is how mine sits now. We are almost completed with the chassis. All we have left to do is mount the brake lines and my rear fuel tank when it comes and new fuel lines.

Hey 68stepbed, need some good shocks?? I bought the wrong ones for my lowered frame. I have Doetsch tech 12" compressed.

Thanks for the offer,

but I already have new shocks. They're just not mounted on the frame because it needs one more good coat of paint before final reassembly.

Inthuwind · 10-03-2006, 05:00 PM

Very well, I'll post them up on the classifieds~Keep up the great progress.

This is my 72 stepside with a 468, I hope to change the wheels next year. Looking forward to everyones thoughts on how to improve my ride.

KEH · 10-03-2006, 10:06 PM

I'll add mine here...

68Stepbed · 10-04-2006, 08:41 AM

Nice lookin truck KEH. That second pic sure wasn't taken in TN was it?

**DREW67** · 10-04-2006, 08:56 AM

Here's mine I finally got it here in KC after along around the world adventure one day I'll post my plans and details on what happen to me in the last 6 months. I have already started tearing it down.

5150 · 10-04-2006, 09:33 AM

Don't think that's TN. At least I've never seen anywhere around here that looks like that. The think I like about KEH's truck is his driver's side marker light.

OK all of you stepsiders. I'm at the pont of ordering wheels and tires and can't decide what size 17's to go with. I really like Ortegamotor's stance.....anybody know what size wheel and tires he's running?? Any help would be appreciated!!!

Thanks,
Donnie

jimmy68c10 · 10-09-2006, 01:50 PM

Here's my 68. Hoped to have made more progress by now just haven't had the time. Besides I need my garage back which is coming soon. I Plan on doing a full frame off.

I like the way 255/60R17's look and work on our trucks. They have a nice 10 inch footprint and would still be easy to steer even without power steering. Being 29 inches tall they will fill out the wheelwell real nice especialy if you are going with a 3 to 4 inch front drop and 4 to 5 inch rear drop.

Werewolf · 10-09-2006, 04:39 PM

Mine's hiding. Or hibernating for the winter.

Honestly I don't know what to do with this truck. The other one's the fixer. I may just turn this into a daily driver after getting a carrier bearing and brakes on it.

bigbassmann · 10-09-2006, 09:55 PM

Here's mine, a '70 lwb.
