Re: 67 step to fleet project
haha I am amazed someone knows what it is, especially on a chevy truck forum haha. I've got moser axles on the way for it, I have the old ones pulled right now. the torque thrusts on the back are made for 1/2in studs and its only got 7/16 studs in it. A-body axles dont have enough meat on em for half inch studs. I would have left it alone, but back in the fall I almost lost a wheel goin down the interstate. I'm talkin every lug nut had backed off enough that I could take them off by finger.

Re: 67 step to fleet project
That's awesome you know about them too. When I take it to a show or even just ridin around, someone that was drivin when they made them will ask what it is and "whats that on the top?" They never believe me when I tell them it was original for the car. So, I always carry around a copy of the window sticker that reads "vinyl roof-floral" They usually just shake their head in disbelief.

Re: 67 step to fleet project
Well the shop is finally done, and the lift is up. Now I just need to move all the tools in and look for another tool box. I got a blast cabinet too. Now to get back on the truck. I do have the pulleys and alt on now though. I also have my wheels now, 5x5 steels, 6's in the front and 8's in the back.
