Re: Project Penicillin~ 68 crewcab build up!
As of now the truck is gone! It will be getting media blasted and sealed then come back to my shop in a few months. Right now I am finishing up a few things on his extended cab (roof, frame, seats, extended rockers and cab corners. Then starting next week will be the start of project Lemon Drop a sweet 68 step side show truck!!! It will be getting all metal finished and ready for paint.

Re: Project Penicillin~ 68 crewcab build up!
No I didn't buy it back, he sold it on Ebay, I built it though, can't remember the wheelbase, was on a stock 72 Suburban frame, stretched it about 24" and cut about a foot off the rear. 4th door was a dummy door, look at my signature to see what I was running in it.

Re: Project Penicillin~ 68 crewcab build up!
I got a little bit of work done on the crew cab even with watching the grandkids which seems to be a full time job. It seems the truck has grown about 4 inches since I have been leaving it out side and even got bigger tires and new wheels. I love donor trucks, may the donor Suburban live in peace.

Re: Project Penicillin~ 68 crewcab build up!
The truck is waiting its turn to get worked on. I am working on a 69 Extended cab truck that is going to get painted. I plan on getting the new 1991 Suburban axles under the crew cab soon with the 4" lift.

Re: Project Penicillin~ 68 crewcab build up!
I just love this build, our neighbor had a 4 door when I was a kid and I always wondered why GM didn't build it right like this one !!! Nice job guys, It's neat to see somebody do a build that I've drawn out a hundred times and have yet to do. Keep us posted !!!

Re: Project Penicillin~ 68 crewcab build up!
where do you guys find these customers? is it word of mouth or just from this site? BTW nice job on the trucks, some day when I have the funds I will stretch mine! but for now since I have mine apart again, I think I will shave off that eyebrow drip rail.. I have a burb tank that measures 26x26x10, its like 32 gallons and fits very nice in the rails, so if the larger on is to big, you might want to concider that size
