Re: Slammed 1966 GMCummins 12v

Double “Z” front and back done, also moved the front forward 1 inch. Z’d the back 6 inches and the front up 2 and forward 1 inch. I have to order some more steel so I can box it all in. With the 6” in the back along with the CCP c notch I will be able to lay frame with my 28” tall tires. Next step is to put the motor back in and see if my oil pan clears the floor. And then check my clearance again on the fire wall.

So far everything has been going smooth (knock on wood) hopefully it stays smooth. My lower control arms are all welded up as well. I’ll spend the next week putting the new joints and bushings in them getting ready for the bags. I’m gonna get the chassis going up and down before I finish my frame welds and paint it up.

Still not sure why my photos are going sideways. Anyone help me out?

Re: Slammed 1966 GMCummins 12v

Man, this is a lot of work. I’m done welding on the frame finally. Time to rebuild the control arms and build it to a roller. I’ll build it unpainted first then when I’m happy with it I’ll take it back apart and paint it for final assembly.

I made Bristol board cut outs then transferred them to sheet metal and cut them out with a plasma. The plasma makes for easy work providing you have a steady hand. This build is very boring right now I know, but hopefully it gets better when the actual build comes.
