Re: 72 Cheyenne Super Plain Jane
I'm in the it's never finished camp.
I would'nt know what to do with myself if I did'nt have a project to work on. I know that your situation is totaly different because you are in a family of gearheads and there is always something to work on, you are a lucky guy in that respect. Once the truck is finished you should try and talk your dad into letting you inherit the '70 Camaro early and build it, because man that is a sweet car. |

Re: 72 Cheyenne Super Plain Jane
Intro is backed up 6-8 weeks so my wheels won't be here till December probably. My dad picked these up for me from the tire store today. Not really progress but it got me excited so I figured I'd share

Re: 72 Cheyenne Super Plain Jane
Well the thing is my dad has about 4 big blocks and he just got another so he told me when the time comes and I am ready for it then it's mine. I want to get this thing on the road before I make it an even greater project. I keep setting goals for myself but I would really like to take it to the Good Guys show in Charlotte next year. Also this is all coming out of my pocket, every expense. So that makes it a lot harder to make progress when I make very little money and I live on my own. But she's getting there, slowly but surely

You and me both, the wheels should be here late November early December so after that then I'll order my rearend which will take about 2-3 weeks and then the back will be rolling. As for the front, I have no idea what I'm gonna do for spindles. There are quite a few people looking for a set for me but nothing has come up yet. I'll probably rock some beater wheels up front just to get it to the painter next and then once she's painted I'll order my front wheels and worry abut that end

Re: 72 Cheyenne Super Plain Jane

I wanted to share what I did on my rear end. Mine is a 60" centered floater. Of course it had 5/8" studs, like I'm sure yours does. So I knew that; 1. It was a bit narrower than a stock truck rear end... and 2. The studs are too big to work with a normal wheel. Soooo, I bought some TransDapt bolt-on wheel spacers, each are 1.25" thick. I had a machine shop open up the mounting holes a little so the 5/8" studs would fit through and so I could get a 1" socket on the lug nuts. I also had them change the taper in the bottom of the hole to match the large lug nuts. So That puts my rear end at 62-1/2" wide, so 3/8" wider than stock. AND they have the correct size studs sticking out of them to run a normal wheel. Hope that helps! Keep up the good work!

Re: 72 Cheyenne Super Plain Jane
Thank you sir. Here a couple progress pictures from the weekend. I still need to get the fenders to fit a little better but the doors are in place. Let me know what you guys think. I'll probably take more before I go back to school tonight
