Re: My 67 C20 Mild restoration with LS swap.
Aww man, mine came as a "mini truck in progress" I.E the bumpers were shaved, emblems and mirrors replaced with a single -useless camaroish mirror. Like what you are doing with yours so far, these trucks suck you in.

Re: My 67 C20 Mild restoration with LS swap.
I have most of the parts I have taken off.
Things I do not have anymore are the saddle tanks, the rear bumper and the exhaust pipes. I still have the engine & tranny and most of the A/C unit. Side mirrors. Still not sure of what to do, maybe save it for another project? Yes they just suck you in DEEP ! Last edited by 332rick; 12-20-2016 at 12:47 AM. |

Finally finished rebuilding the transmission and pairing it to the block. Mocking things up to see how they will look?
So far so good! |

Re: My 67 C20 Mild restoration with LS swap.
Term touching up is a little understated, what you have done to get the mirror finish on your inner fenders. Awesome.... a black stripe would look good with your finish color also.
