Coming along! Looking great!

Wow Chris! the bedliner looks great. I'm digging the exhaust too. Very similar to mine I think. Can't wait to get where you are at on your build.

Great shots of the bed and exhaust. Looks like you are doing a flush mount brake booster too. Is that true? If so, that is a lot of fun.

Here's a better pic of the booster... I posted a question on the general thread about it. It's not flush mount... but still fun for me as my knowledge of brakes is a... zip, zero notta.

Ah, yeah, I can see that now. Thanks for the clarification. And yes, I knew little to nothing about brakes when I started too. Somehow, you get really motivated to figure it out when you know you are going to be the first to test drive the truck after its back together! If you are not getting your answer in the general board, you can post your questions in your own thread too and someone may know the answer to help ya out!

Lake Anna, is that line-x on the floor of your bed, I just did a Bed Rug type bed liner from Gaylord Lids on my 71 which is the same color as your's and I put an extang revoluation tonneau on I'll try to attach a picture.

I just went with the urethane raptor liner on mine... The stuff is soooo easy to use and I had the bed preped after all the sandblasting and so forth. I did fill a couple of the dings in the floor and scuffed it again with 320. Wiped it down with final wash and taped the bed for like 3 hours. Shot the liner in 10 minutes. I love the finish.

Nice truck! I like the color

Actually I just have the 1.5 spring in the front at the moment... Like everything else so far that is subject to change. Just seeing it with the cab down on it makes me smile... I knew dropping it would be nice but I love it now.
I looked at all types of wheels and for me and the budget I settled for show wheels streeter (polish). I got them off the brown truck yesterday! I'm not a wheel specialist but man they are nice looking. Searching for tires and I ended up ordering Toyo 295/40 for the rear and 255/40 for the front.

Once I get it all together and see how things settle I may tweak on the springs some like you did.

LakeAnna · 04-24-2012, 06:18 PM

Just some pics I shot today... I had to move the truck outside to get another project on the lift today. Check my new shoe out!!!

dmwphoto · 04-24-2012, 07:31 PM

VA72C10 · 04-24-2012, 11:45 PM

Truck is looking great! Can't wait to see those wheels on there...I wish they didn't have the writing but they are an awesome deal for such a nice wheel...

What brand / model number are these headers??

Here is a link to the Sanderson site.

http://www.sandersonheaders.com/Sand...eader-Set.html

The ones I have are the cc10-apdp (angle plug heads with d-port). I don't think you will find that listed on there site. I ordered mine after some research thru ECE.
They fit perfect!!
And allowed me to run the entire exhaust thru the frame so I can continue to go lower if needed in the future.

Early Classic has the best prices on Sanderson I could find so if that's what you want give them a call.

I like the show wheels specially for the price. I'm going to drive this so no high dollar stuffs like the big dogs run.

I was wondering how the lettering would look... I don't mind it too much the engraved area is not painted black on these so it's less of an eye sore. I like them.

That thing is killer! My dad built it over the last 3 years.. I learned a ton helping on the 56. That's the reason I decided to jump in on a 72 truck.

The black is sooooo nice. White and black interior from Larry's Thunderbirds.
