Re: Project "Shifted"
I just figured out that the tubs will fit the 73-87 C10s just a well as they fit the 67-72s! They will also fit the 60-66's trucks, but will require a small amount of fiberglass work. Let me know if you have any questions.

Re: Project "Shifted"
Currently working on some small stuff while waiting for some parts to come in. I got the AAW fuse panel mounted, trimming my Hill's front Tubs, finishing up the brake lines, and working on the shifter linkage....hopefully it will be a productive weekend, .

He's been busy with family and job. I send him pictures every now and again of the progress.

Didn't get much done on the truck today, but I did get the prototype for the bigger tub, .

Re: Project "Shifted"
Enough about the ChubTubz .....Back to regularly scheduled programming, . Finally some updates on the 68. I've been waiting to install my Porterbuilt hinges because I was trying to figure out a way to mount them without welding to my painted hood. I designed a bracket that will bolt on to where the factory hood hinge bolts on and the allows the PBFab hinge to be attached to it. I just got them back from my machine shop and here's a couple of picture of the brackets. I will try to get everything installed this weekend and then will post more pictures. Let me know what you think.

I got a little done yesterday. Passenger side hood hinge is installed. Just need to finish up the drivers side. Then I will install the nutserts on the hood and bolt it all together and see if it works.....

Thanks Seth, I appreciate it. I finally got both hood hinges installed. I just need to fine tune them a little. Next I will shoot some paint on the parts and install the nutserts on the hood, then I can try my new bolt on hood hinge brackets and see if they work like I planned, . Hopefully this project will be wrapped up by the weekend, . Oh, I forgot to mention, I figured out a way to install the hood hinge pocket in the cowl without cutting the cowl. All you have to do is slot the pocket in the correct place, .

Dumb question Rob, is the pocket the piece that bolts inside the cowl? Looks like additional support pieces bolted outside the cowl? Thanks! Looks good.

Those brackets connect to the inner pocket and mount the gas struts. Last night I got everything bolted up and mounted. I still need to tweek it a little, but I'm pretty happy with the setup.
