Here's another shot of it layed out. The ground wasn't level which actually made the truck look level

Body set back down. Now the debate is cut it off at the doors or leave it at the rockers

Re: Free Candy Inside: 63 Long Panel Build

Well after asking for opinions I did what I usually do.. What I want. After much debate on keep rockers or go to the door and eliminate all the rust we decided to go to the doors. I am going to be putting strapping down under the actual door/part of the rocker. Thinking maybe 1/4. So while I was teaching Dave got started on the rear of the frame 4" to match how far the body will travel down total. 2" for what we took off the top of the frame under the cab and 2" more for the body drop to get down to about the doors.

I started cramming the drivetrain in. It was the hardest part of the job so far. You wouldn't think shoving a 95 engine into an 84 K member mounted to a 63 Chevy would be so difficult. Haha

Tomorrow includes tranny crossmember, front frame horns, and re installing the front suspension. Then I'm getting it out of his shop and get started on the body work and floors. Don't think I'll make the show next weekend. But I'm going to try. Haha

Got it set back down. Still need to cut the floors out to get it to sit all the way down.
