I've made some progress.... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*Randy70C-10* · 05-22-2005, 12:47 PM

I've been working the stepside little by little. This week I've installed cab mounts, windshield, and gas tank. I've also purchased 1970 plates for it. I've adjusted the timing and carb, the ZZ-3 runs awesome and is now driveable (still need a couple more small things to make it street legal). Here she is! (also, the tank is an auxillary tank from a 3/4 ton)

Lookin' good

*Randy70C-10* · 05-22-2005, 01:02 PM

Yep, the cab is ready for paint, I'm going to paint it first anyhow. Since I'll be using a bit of flames and graphics, I'll be able to paint the truck in two separate shootings instead of all at once.
