Your truck's looking good man. I'm liking the stance on it, so freaking low. Hopefully I can get a drop on mine a little while after I get her on the road and put some miles on her and some more money in my pocket.

See thats where you have it all wrong.. with these kinds of projects you never have much of that

Thanks man! Yeah its coming around slowly

TwiggyTheDrummer · 02-05-2009, 08:59 PM

Yeah I know what you mean. After I "finish" my '63 I'm going to set up my 94 Blazer as a better puller so that I can pull the truck to shows and up to NC and other places to cruise the mountains and hit some shows. So yeah, the money won't ever be there.

**scotts62** · 02-05-2009, 09:29 PM

Thats cool, here is what i got for a puller if i should ever need one. its a 94 3/4 ton, picked it up the other day for $150 needs some odds and ends and a head gasket. ill try and take some more updated pics since i got it home.

TimE · 02-05-2009, 10:08 PM

You're getting "project poor" now too...

TwiggyTheDrummer · 02-05-2009, 10:41 PM

Not a bad score.

I've got to juice up the brakes and trans, add some performance upgrades to the engine and a performance chip. Also add a trailer brake under the dash and paint the exterior because of crappy stock paint/hail damage. I could still pull a trailer with it right now though, even without those upgrades. The stock brakes are pretty weak though on mine.

I need the seat out of that truck!!!!!!!!!!!! If it's in good shape, I'll give you your 150.00 back and trade ya seats! Then the truck will have been free!!!!!

Your build looks amazing so far, I'm impressed. Is it gonna spark when it rolls?

jr's62 · 05-07-2009, 12:03 AM

hey very nice lookin truck. where did you get the tilt glass front, and was it expensive. that would be great for my part of oklahoma with all the rain and road debri would really save fenders. was it hard to fit.
