Nice truck/build!

Lovin' the front bumper, where ya gonna mount your front plate?

Also, in post #196 it looks like a one piece door glass but that's not what you wound up with?

Well, Great 1st show!!!! I won "Best of Show, Classic Truck".

smbrouss70 · 09-03-2011, 06:56 PM

Congrats, looks like a well deserved trophy.

**67cheby** · 09-03-2011, 07:13 PM

Sweet.. Great job !!

NWD02 · 09-05-2011, 11:42 AM

Thanks guys... it's been a lot of fun with this project. It felt good seeing everyone walking around it and talking about it.

Nick, it was good meeting you tonight. Came home and read your build. Unbelievable. Hell of a job. Maybe I'll see you in Kemah tomorrow night. And if you ever need an extra set of hands, let me know. I'm only like 5 minutes down the road. (I know that's REAL helpful now that you're done with all the hard work. hahahah)

olskoolchevy · 10-21-2011, 11:38 PM

Oh and what all did you end up needing to make the rearend posi?

Simply awesome project! I wish I hadn't missed the build. You really knocked this truck out!

NWD02 · 10-22-2011, 06:39 AM

Joel, it was good meeting you. I'm planning on going to Kemah tonight but not 100% if I can. I did put a posi rear end in the truck. It's an Eaton chunk with a 373 gear. Thanks Mike, it's been a fun/very slow project. It has been nice actually driving it after approximately of 4 years of work. Few bugs to work out on the truck, but that's not surprise.

NWD02 · 11-12-2011, 02:35 PM

After the second little one last week, 11-2-11, I think it's time to sale it and find something that seats four. Will probably be posting it in the for sale adds soon.

@ 1967Wannabe : Sorry it took me so long to respond to your question, was just reading through posts, guess I had missed it. I originally planned on going with the 1 piece kit, but after the headaches, and frustration of the fit I sold it and just purchased new vent assemblies, regulators, and installed it all.

Truck needs some miles on it... sitting covered up in the garage for too long now. Maybe a schedule change in March so I can get out and drive it with the 2 year old, she loves it!

Shoot in March, your damn lucky. Here in Oregon I'm lucky if my hot rods can come out in May! Liquid sunshine.

That's what I assumed. My project came with a Brother's one piece kit still in the box. After all the reading, I'm going with vents. I like the old school look of them anyway.
