I have been looking at this conversion on line. Was the wrong pretty much plug and play? I don't se a tach feed in the existing harness.

For now I an digging the digital dash but definitely on my list.

Thanks Zane. I really want to be done, you should see more action in the coming months..

64shortbox · 02-04-2013, 10:58 AM

Glad to see you're back working on your truck and making great progress again.

Threedog · 02-06-2013, 01:44 PM

That digital dash looks great! Way better than those aftermarket ones.

Thanks Threedog, some may not agree, but after 15 months to ponder on the idea

E911manager · 02-09-2013, 12:02 AM

Back window INSTALLED!!! Fit after a little trimming...

C@rnut001 · 02-09-2013, 12:07 AM

It is looking good, keep up the great job and thanks for updating us on your progress.

E911manager · 02-10-2013, 09:04 PM

Made the battery box. I opted to build one instead buying one. I feared they were to deep and I could have some clearance issues if I go lower. Took out all the old battery cables and installed new cables. Moved the ground to back of the head instead the front. Got a coat of paint on the new metal but didn't take a pic.. Now a little more cable management..

wraprail · 05-24-2013, 05:42 AM

Any updates ???

E911manager · 05-24-2013, 03:08 PM

Well thanks for asking... It is slow going. I think I have about 25 hours in each door.. These pics are a couple of weeks old but I have them sitting with a couple of coats of high build primer now. Starting to skim the hood too.. I media blasted the doors, hood and cowl before I started. I have my drivers fender and passenger fender is on order.

I hope to hang my doors this week end and get them ready for paint. Then maybe I can get some interior going.

E911manager · 05-24-2013, 03:19 PM

I also picked up some tan seats out of 04 chevy with integrated seat belts, console and cup holders. I decided to go this route for now because I really want to drive it and thought it would be more comfy for my old tail...

E911manager · 05-25-2013, 11:02 PM

Bought some wheels from a fellow 67-72 chevy truck guy that I met via Craigslist. I finally got the doors mounted and lined up. A little more tweaking and sanding and they will be ready for paint. I put a fender on just to check if things line up...

So how low should I go??

It is all coming together...

likaroc13 · 05-26-2013, 12:48 AM

Nice! Good to see you're still making progress. I really like those wheels. Those the Eagle 225's?

CuRtdOgG · 05-26-2013, 01:03 AM

Man those wheels are bad as$$, pretty cool dude whoever sold you those!

Nice project and the wheels are a nice touch! I am a blue fan as well. Can't wait to see how this comes out.

E911manager · 05-26-2013, 09:55 PM

Yep they are Eagle 225's.

The guy I got them off of was alright. It took almost a month to close the deal!!! LOL

I am definitely a blue guy. I fell in love with this color the minute I saw it. I am trying to stay on it but I keep getting side tracked with life.

ChadCook · 05-29-2013, 01:08 AM

Awesome Chad, I am glad you are on board. I will look for your project. Let me know if you need anything.....

E911manager · 06-13-2013, 05:09 PM

I am stuck on high center.... Life needs to slow down so I can focus on the important things... DAMN Oklahoma Storms...

E911manager · 06-25-2013, 12:33 PM

This last Sunday I got some paint rolled on the doors, fenders and grill support.. I sat a fender in place to get an idea... I am so ready to get the front end in place and start putting in the interior...

likaroc13 · 06-25-2013, 02:06 PM

Looking more & more like a truck!

I noticed you mentioned the OK storms. Were you or any of your family affected?
