Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
I was looking at your fan and radiator... I know you are building a custom shroud, but have you considered a high mount water pump? There is a C60 sitting at work with a 454 that has this style pump on it since the radiator sits so high in the truck and the engine sits so low. Might be something to look at

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
Hmm... If I would have realized those were available sooner then we probably would have gone that route and made a few things easier...

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
Well I stopped by our body guy's place and dropped some rockers off for him to play with. Snapped some pics and BS'ed for a little while. We've both been busy with other things, but now that I'm starting to save a little money up I'm getting my head back into it. I'm really anxious to get this dang cab back!!!
I'll post some pics of the progress soon. Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
Very cool. I know these projects take a lot of time and money. It is a long road but well worth it in the end!

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
The dash has been fit in, still needs a lot of work...but we can see it coming together.
The scallop at each corner will let us fit the front down legs of the cage forward and tight against the a-pillar. Shouldn't loose any leg/knee room ![]() Rear corners of the main cab cleaned up nice.

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
Amazing!
Can you send a picture of how you mounted the wires off the distributor? Looks clean.

Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab
Not really bud... it's pretty much at a stand still waiting on the body. But my birthday is just around the corner and my dad told me he knew where some parts were I might be interested in. So after suffering through an hour or two of looking at patio furniture we headed over to an old friend of my dad's place where these parts were. Turned out to be a complete (mostly still in the box) Vintage Air system!!
