67 C10 "Green Gobblin" straight from the field!

Any updates? Miss seeing this one...

[6t9camaro]

Yup still here! Projects been going pretty slow lately as I had to pack it all up to move. But we’re starting to get settled into the new place. I’ve got to get some garage equipment set up before I can start back on it. I do have some pics to update so I will try and get those up soon!

Wow it's been over a year since I last posted a pic! I'm finally going to get this thread updated with pics of work that has been done. A lot has changed on the truck and I've been working on and off on it for the past year. I will update from where I left off and catch up to where I am now. First up I will finish up pics of the exhaust. Here you can see the manifolds coated and installed and the fit up and weld of the pipes up to the crossmember.

More welding

And of course just like everything else once I'm done I decided I wanted flex joints so i put those in.

[6t9camaro]

Once I finished that stuff up I decided to play with and fit up some of the Accuair parts. Got the tank, compressors and solenoids mounted.

[6t9camaro]

Figured it was a good time to get the diff in place so i could take some measurements and keep going.

[6t9camaro]

Before I put the cab back on I decided to put the rad and cradle in and get it up and running to break in the cam and do a quick tune. ( also i really wanted to hear the exhaust and cam! Also a few pics of some fuel line routing and temp air lines.

[6t9camaro]

Wheels on and its time to move it into position to get the cab on! You can see my helper is pretty excited to see it move!

[6t9camaro]

Cab on and we ran into a problem! Not enough clearance on the trans tunnel so i had to cut up my new floor for the high hump!

[6t9camaro]

Also tire touches the firewall but the 40 series tires a little to big anyway. Cab is on!!!

My oh my... The Goblin is back! Glad to see you haven't fallen of the radar man, such a nice build. Looks like your boy is a year older too.

[6t9camaro]

Yup the Goblin is Back and I'm doing a big push to get there out this summer! And yes my boy is getting older and busier than ever!

[6t9camaro]

Heres a few more random pics of the cab on and the front crossmember nice and close to the ground. I also started fitting up the fenders and realizing the 22" wheels are going to be a challenge up front!

[6t9camaro]

Ok so with the fenders on I can now see I will be ditching the heater core, hood hinges, and changing to a different brake booster. Without cutting out the inner fenders it sits pretty darn high! I had expected to change most of that but now i can see exactly why.

Looking Good.
Personally I am not a low rider guy but they are pretty cool.

I like all the stuff that makes them (Do what they Do).
How much will those bags lift the truck?

Yep, I just recently made the same discovery on the inner fender structure of Walter...& I only have 20’s. So, I ended up going with Mike’s ‘Slosh Tubz’ to keep from slinging debris all over.

Thanks! I like the stock height or lifted trucks also but I've had a few lowrider cars and figured it was time to try out a truck! So far the bags lift between 4-6 inches depending on front or back without all the truck weight on them.

Wow thats looking pretty sweet! Im also thinking about 20"s for the front, What size tire do you have in the front?

Thanks!!! I went with 255/45r20’s (295/40r20’s out back) on the front as I didn’t want rubber bands for tires because I wanna drive Walter.

A gratuitous ride height shot.

[6t9camaro]

That looks like a good size tire up front! I also really like your rim choice. If I wasn't going for the black steel wheel look id be going for a set of those!

[6t9camaro]

Well since I'm waiting on parts now I figured it's a good time to dig out a few things and get them done. Pulled out the old mirrors and got them fitted and installed, got the glove box and door panels painted and installed so thats another piece of the puzzle finished!

[6t9camaro]

More pics!

[6t9camaro]

I had a fairly productive weekend! Friday the switch suspension hood hinges came in so I managed to get those installed. The brake booster bracket from (Captain fab) came in along with my brake parts and my heater-core delete plate. So after two full days I've got a few pics to show.

[6t9camaro]

Changing the brake booster and bracket cleaned it up and made a lot of room.
