Can't wait to install them! I was told that he would have it done by Wednesday of this week, so I said I would pick it up Saturday. I have yet to call him but we'll see.

I did't even call him but I will today to see if it will be ready for pickup this Friday. Thanks for backing me on the mouldings, makes me feel like I made the right decision!

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Here is this weeks update. I made some progress this weekend and I only worked on it Sunday. Feels good to get something done. Finalized how my fuel filler was going to live. This was kind of a milestone for me in the build. Started by getting the crossmember cut out and while I was at it I went ahead and cut the crossmember for clearance over the diff. I lowered the gas tank about a quarter inch just to give the pipe a little more clearance.
The 45 degree bend in the pipe clears the sending unit perfectly. This pic was taken before I lowered the tank a little and shaved a little more of the hose off too. The hose is much closer to fuel cell now. This was the first time the bed was on the frame since we corrected the c-notch issue. Both sides of the truck sit within about an 1/16th of an inch in difference. That's close enough for government work! Here is a pic of the rally on the rear. I think they are gonna look awesome. The invisible tires were purchased at the same store as Heath's cowl. ![]()

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
looking good man! i went ahead and made my bracket for the tank today but the suburban frame slants at the rear unlike the truck frames, and its gonna be hard to move it up because i have straight fittings coming from the tank....i didnt pre plan this well lol. i should have used the 90 degree ones. hey i forgot to ask you last time i was up there...where did you get your panhard bar at? i might be shopping for one soon so i might as well get it ordered.

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Here is the latest. I moved the lower a-arms forward as much as possible in hopes that it would help the geometry on the front end. Since I am shimming the uppers to push the wheel forward this should accomodate the difference. Am I wrong?? I cut down the L-88 hood scoop breather cover to make sure that it didn't cover too much of the valve covers and didn't hit the firewall.
I got the bulbs and lenses in the grill. Got the tailights, lenses and bulbs in too. I ran all of the wiring to the compressors and the pressure switch also. I will wireloom all the wiring to clean it up. This is the airfilters for the compressors. Not too happy with them just hanging so they will be mounted to the frame in front of the fuel cell. Also got my fuel lines ran from the fuel cell to the front of the frame, I should only have to use a small peice of tubing to connect to the fuel pump.

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Great job David, dont forget to show us a pic when youre done with the hood scoop, and about the front wheels pushed forward...I think you might run into some alignment problems down the road but lets hope not...

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
Hey, so what is really going on with this engine of yours, if it was me I would have gone elsewhere. Have you thought about this? Because you have to be getting frustrated by now. Sorry if it is causing trouble for you.
